Echoes of Yesterday

Memories of the past, now just a trace,

Fading away with each passing day,

Nostalgia grips me, a tight embrace,

Of memories that won't go away.

//

Childhood memories, pure and bright,

Of laughter, love and endless play,

Of childhood dreams, of pure delight,

Of a time that slipped away.

//

Remembering friends, so dear and true,

From days gone by, that we hold so dear,

With laughter, love, and memories too,

That are always close, we hold them near.

//

The memories linger, of a place,

Of special times, we'll always see,

With laughter, love, and a smiling face,

That keep the memories alive in me.

//

So I hold dear to my nostalgia,

For it's the memories that give me peace,

For a life that was once full of joy and bliss,

And the memories that I'll never release.
