Eternal Fires
‘Eternal Fires’ is a poem of mine which explores the
importance of hindsight and looking back, but more so about the significance of
letting go of these past memories in order to move forward to create positive
future times. This piece touches upon personal memories throughout too. I hope
you have a brilliant October 2019 and there will be lots more articles, stories
and poetry on ‘Jake Borrett’s Writing Blog’ over the coming weeks and months.
Take care.

Eternal Fires
We wish happy moments were an eternal fire, always
blazing
Playing games of Scrabble and Articulate as we sit on
cushions
Walking over hushed bridges under a burnt orange sky
Stroking each other’s fingers under oak trees with birds
soaring up high
Laughing over in-jokes, sharing slices of toast, spilling
lemonade on our lap
Being together with loves ones where a good day stokes
the embers
So, they continue to always shine.
But no matter how precious,
We have to let go of these past moments
If only to make others, and then we can be free
We wish happy moments were an eternal fire, always blazing...Copyright © 2016 Maria at Superior Wallpapers. All rights reserved. |
