A Memory

A MEMORY…

I walk along, a memory dances across my mind
Familiar to me, but my eyes seem blind
I know this place; I’ve seen it before
But the colors were brighter; there was so much more

The water glistened, like sparkling glass
The sun made shadows that danced on the grass
The smell of the seasons filled the air
Songs of the birds echoed everywhere

I look around, could this be the place
That once felt enchanted, that we frequently graced
Shadows dance across my mind
Unable to grasp this memory of mine
