a box of memories

a box of memories

A Poem by wordman
"

"
You know honey
we never meant to part
just differences of the heart
you went to college,i went to war
you were always the girl next door
we dated all through high school
you were a cheerleader
and i was the star quarterback
you were my first kiss
my first time 
you are all the memories
that dwell in my mind
i still have your ring,
and all the other memories,
you left behind.and i hope 
that i'm a sweet memory in your mind...

it is in my blood sharon,lol.thank you for taking the time.waiting on one from you !
What makes this message original & memorable is the amount of detail you included, so we could know what your memories of this first love consist of . . . high school football games, first kisses, going steady with the class ring exchange, etc. I think we remember these things more kindly than how it actually went, sometimes. But all for the good. Thanks for the reminders.

If I could go back in time. I would have made the first kiss, first embrace last longer. Thank you my friend for sharing the excellent poetry.

I'm sure that you are a sweet memory to her, my friend :) I love how you wrote this like you are speaking to a photograph in a private intimate newly blown kiss. Sweet memories never go away. Lovely poem, Ron
