Always Remember (For That First Love) Poem by david lessard

Let it not be forgotten.
how much I've cried for you.
Let it always be remembered,
my love for you was true.
Let me always think of your kisses,
and the joy of each embrace;
Let not a memory dwindle,
into the past, without a trace.

Let us recall that happy November
and also the love at the end,
Let us bring back, the warmth
of it all...
and the sadness that finally
did blend.

Bring back to mind,
a sweet, charming smile,
and the glow of audacious eyes;
Let's laugh at
the antics of
young people in love
and shed tears recalling
goodbyes...

As I watch the smoke from
the fading fire,
and view the fiery embers,
my heart leaps with pleasure,
as dreams I still treasure,
though your heart's forgotten...
Mine still remembers.
