Sitting in the very early hours of the morning, listening to music when slowly Muse started to suggest a few words to me. The resulting poem is actually two interlinked poems, different but fully connected in feel and theme.
Roads & Remember - 22 Feb 13
The road past my door
Is empty now
Though my memory still hears
The footsteps you left
I recall the Lovely words
You whispered
To me
… Remember
The road across the moor
Chill ~ wind blows cold
Forgotten words still spoken
By forgotten voices
You softly said
We shall be together
Again … always
… Remember
The road by the sea
Where we walk
Hand in hand
Your touch always
Your gentle words
Always in my mind
We are together
… Always
I think it works rather well, thank you Muse for your suggestions.
another amazing poem, Ainsley! it works beautifully as one combined poem! LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteI composed it as a single poem but it does work as two interrelated pieces too.
DeleteThank you dani ♥ for your lovely comments.
it certainly does ~ i read it both ways and love them equally, i think. {smile}
