Memories of you Sharon
Never far from my mind
The distant past
I lovingly rewind
Since you went away
Often, I’m reminded of you
In love songs I hear
Relating my love so true
So many songs
I’ve now compiled a list
Totaling 289
Until the next song insists
So many times, I wanted to say
“I love you”
Then I learned you’d be leaving
And I knew I had to tell you
That’s when I left that letter
In your school locker
At risk, you might think of me
Some kind of stalker
For love to haunt a man
For more than fifty years
With the memory of your smile
And not even a hint of tears
Quite to the contrary
The smile you left with me
Fueling my inner fire
And my own smile to see
This playlist of songs
Playing within my heart
Every one for you Sharon
The love of my life, my sweetheart

hahahaha, thank you Teddy. ; )
I would sing the 289 of them, but it would scare her away! lol.
Orchi if you find her, don't let her know that you know me. ; )
Those memories will never fade AP and that list of songs is so important in that memory.
So many songs that I hear bring my Joyce back to me.

And she'll always be with you Andy. ; )
