Memories ebb and flow
Reminders of joys and sorrows
Loves and decisions
Made before old age
Slowed my faltering steps.
Memories crystal clear
Faces of many long dead
Parents, brothers and sisters
Schoolmates, friends and lovers
Beloved pets, and childhood toys.
Like a tide the memories
Engulf mind and soul
Many bringing sadness and tears
Regrets they are only memories
Never to be relived again.
