I smile, remembering you
right here

Time
It stood still for me
At the place I stood
Right there
With you
That’s a nice thing.
In my case, I tend to be flying by without opportunity for time to stop, but it’s a smile as I go by, every time. 🙂
🙂
time it might be or an opportunity that flew by
All that matters is that smile
a moment, but its again time
a frozen moment, now special with your smile
🙂
😉
that’s a lot of poems 🙂
They’re not all poems. For the first 2 years (maybe 3) there were lots of commentaries, short stories, etc mixed in with the poetry. I’ve been focusing on a poem a day since April 2013. I think there are about 750 or so poems.
April 2013 was a good day… it’s not easy to find something new to say everyday… that’s a skill… I so envious 🙂
Thanks. It’s a fun challenge. Keeping your eyes open leads to spotting poems everywhere.
There are those special places– even songs and movies– which bring to mind memorable events in our lives. And no matter how frequent the encounter, those images are forever.
Yup.
😉
simple and true! no more to be said 🙂
Thanks Isabella.
1,600??? wow.. I just crossed 100
Congratulations on 100! Just keep writing! 🙂
1600! Wow – that’s what I call prolific. I do hope you get a chance to drag yourself away from your PC every now & again. Or has it now morphed into your anatomy.
lol. Well, it has taken 1579 days to get to this point.
I do have a full time job, write novels and volunteer in my community so I do get away now and then
Nice. That’s a whole lot of posts. I’m on 30-something.
June 2010 so was I…
Keep going. They add up in the blink of an eye.
congratzz for the last line in bracket ^_^ 🙂 awesome..
Thank you!
I believe that much memory is geographically stimulated. It is amazing how I find myself thinking the same thoughts on the same stretch of highway. Landmarks of mind.
Yes.
Beautiful as always…and congratulations of your 1600th post!!! 😊
Thank you, Billie!
Don’t stop.
I don’t intend to. 😉
Congratulation Shawn and I wish great success in your future endeavors. Your poems are truly inspiring.
Thank you!
Inherited a new place such as the one you describe, just this summer. Each time I pass . . . —Chagall
I hope your memories are positive, Carlos.
Yes – a wonderful memory of a wonderful day. —CC
Excellent. One needs many of those landmarks.
Ahhhh you just reminded me of something. ..
😉
