SOMETIMES

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

Sometimes
As if a dream
My mind returns
To Autumns scene
Hazel eyes
Long black hair
A gentle kiss
A loving stare.

Coconut skin
Smooth as silk
A night of music
Too much to drink
Hours melt
Light turned low
In minds return
To memorys show.

The lifted veil
Peels back time
To turn a page
Of drifting rhyme
A hazy vision
Retreating warmth
That stamped its mark
Through a storm.

    My friend, what a beautifully nostalgic piece. There are memories that time simply cannot erase…they may retreat for years, but when they return, they bring an entire moment of our lives back with them. Really loved this, Norman. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
