Precious Thoughts
As I sit in the falling shadows...
I quietly reflect on times past...
So many beautiful memories...
Blossoms of first loves...
So tender and sweet
Full of gentleness and innocence
Memories of childhood friends...
Playing and laughing together without a care in the world
Memories of warm and cherished family moments...
Gatherings filled with love
Thoughts of a little boy...
So sweet
And precious beyond measure.
Laughter and giggles
Tears and hugs
Pure childhood innocence
Also reflections of times of grief and sorrow...
Beautiful memories of grandparents held dear to my heart...
As I think of them now in heaven...
But their warm smiles and unconditional love will never be forgotten
My grandmother with her quiet dignity,
Yet sparks of passionate fire
And my grandfather
With the teasing twinkle in his eyes
So many wonderful memories...
As the falling shadows turn to ebony night
I gently smile
And turn out the light
As an afterthought
I pause to realize that I feel amazingly serene and peaceful...
After taking the night to reflect upon so many precious memories...
And to hold them close to my heart...
I quietly drift into sleep
As the night envelops me in comfort and tranquility
