Hold back the years
hold back time
how many new wrinkles
can i find .
Oh how i long for yesterday
i can remember running barefoot
down a dirt road just after a rain
stepping in the puddles.
I can remember the warm water
on my feet,flying kites,riding
a bus for the first time.
Going to a saturday matinee
watching two or three movies
staying all day.
A golden glove boxer, a basketball star,
Oh but those days seem so far.,
But i long to be there again
just once more before the end.
oh how i long for yesterday...

We all feel like that on occasions but we are still here and have many more yesterdays to create in our lives.

i guess we do andy but we have better things to look forward to
what a relatable depiction of that yearning
we all get from time to time: to rewind - time
so as to relive those idyllic days
of yesteryear's, highlight reels
in our reminiscing's album, of memento scenes...
(this took me on a journey
of a few cherished memories;
what a wonderful gift, in a read
thanks for sharing, dear poet)
