Muffled ears
And stifled tears
Holding onto
The golden years
That passed us by
Leaving memories
Of halcyon days
That were glimmering
And shimmering
In a summer haze
Oh how I long
For the old days
Where I was young
And I felt vital
Living life
Without a care
melancholy thoughts
Bring back
Happy memories
But also leave me
Yearning and longing
For those days gone by.

Excellent poem, and very apt for me. Today the events of just over 60 years ago will be re told in a play. My family history will come alive. Memories are what makes us.
