Echoes Of The Past Poem by Viola Grey
Echoes Of The Past
Summer-sun kisses cover naked feet,
but fail to warm my soul.
Time floods memories into the walls
of my unforgiving mind.
Where did he go?
This is why I refuse to surrender to forever.
This pain is the only future.
Every day is maddenly the same,
each footstep follows another dull heartbeat
into echoes of the past.

This makes a beautiful read Viola...so many images come to mind...10++
each footstep follows another dull heartbeat into echoes of the past. could have enchained the retreating feet could have pierced into threshold the steely guilt of having loved once so deeply so dearly
What exquisite images. Naked feet and sun kisses but fail to warm my soul. A wistful creative piece of writing Viola. Karin Anderson
In time the sun will reach the soul and in turn will feed that lovely heart of yours 10 Chris
A sad first line sets the scene with potent imagery - Viola this piece really touches the heart - - hoping time will not only 'flood memory's walls' with dark but will bring back light times too....... Big hig and big 10 from Fay....xx
