Remember Me

Accidental Poet



Remember Me

 

Sometimes I find myself

Lost in that rear view mirror

Memories that flow

Like an aging river

 

I begin to envision

So many faces

Where I grew up

And my favorite places

 

Of my hometown

I remember so well

The pride that shows

When I hear the Lawson Tower bells

 

And my back up against

The Scituate Light

Watching that horizon

The sunrise a glorious sight

 

And now it’s Christmastime

We’re deep into December

With Christmas lights everywhere

And all the smiles I remember

 

I can’t help but wonder

Of all these memories I see

Dare I imagine that they

Remember me
