Good morning Mr. Dunphy
I’m fine thank you
Yes, you may have seen me before
I’ve driven by a time or two
I grew up in this town
Even fell in love with a little girl
She used to live in your house
Man, she was my whole world
Please don’t think I’m being nosy
But when ever I drive by
My mind goes back
To a younger, sweeter time
Her smile forever in my heart
Sharon is her name
She sparked everlasting love in me
An eternal true love flame
The prettiest girl I’d ever seen
She was all I could think of
One look at her smile
And I was head over heels in love
“How long ago was this?” you ask
Just about 50 years since she left
Off to the west coast she went
That she couldn’t stay, my lifelong regret
But I look at your house
And my memory comes alive
So have a nice day Mr. Dunphy
Till next time on my nostalgic drive

Charming little ride down main street and past Mr. Dunphy''s house.....
Thank you Lorna. The house has been remodeled now and I think Mr. Dunphy must have sold it. So I don't go by the house anymore as I want to remember it the way it was when Sharon lived there.
Good write AP.
Thanks Orchi. 😉
Love never forgets. This is a beautiful poem my friend.
Thank you, Yes Coyote, some loves won't let you forget. And I've no problem with that. 😉
Memories of love are so wonderful AP.

I hitched a literary lift and felt every little bump and swerve along the way .. and the journey was every bit as enjoyable as you painted it sir ... a super nostalgic journey back in time to a place where a little bit of ya heart still resides .................... N 🙂
