Threads of a memory

**Threads of a Memory**

A photograph hangs on the wall,

"Take the photographs and still frames in your mind," it calls.

The scent of the fields where youth once played,

Etched in the heart, those memories stayed.

“Every mile a memory,” the roads whisper low,

Each turn tells a story, and each stop glows.

"Castle on the Hill" rises tall in the haze,

A song of laughter from simpler days.

Long ago, where "Bookends" stood,

Time’s fleeting touch laid its gentle hand.

“Back Home Again” in a warm embrace,

Familiar faces in a familiar place.

The echoes of promises, "Making Memories of Us,"

Fragile threads, bound by love and trust.

Through seasons of joy and fleeting tears,

The song of life plays through the years.

Memories linger, a tethered refrain,

A bittersweet tune that eases the pain.

From the past to now, the stories fulfil,

Woven together where time stands still.
