No Regrets

No Regrets

A Poem by velsix
"

Memories remind us of our lifes journey, without them there would be no purpose in living.

"

No Regrets.

I walk alone on golden sands,

caressed by a moonlit sea.
Salt scented breezes brush through my hair,
while snow capped waters kiss my hands.

 

Old memories echoing from ebony pools,
surrendered by exhausted tides.
Forgotten friends, they reappear
and my tears fall like silvery jewels.

 

Those childhood years of long ago,
warm summers spent in harmless play.
Of Halloween and fireworks too
and Christmas trees with winters snow.

 

My teens, what joy of that first kiss.
lost innocence in tender arms,
with promise of eternal love,
those were the days I often miss.

 

Now the Autumn of my life draws near.
I hear the 'shepherd' calling me,
I am content, I'm satisfied,
his voice it calms my fear.

Excellent imagery here, with a definite nostalgic sense to it. I think you've spun something stylistically beautiful here - good job.
