A Place In Mind Poem by Frederick Nellist
A Place In Mind
I'm from a place so precious in mind
I'm from a moment long time passed
I'm from a memory that happened fast
The place my childhood was inclined.
I'm from a place with a door called Two
I'm from a dwelling of soulful prayers
I'm from a place where poverty flares
A place my mothers child passed through.
I'm from a place seen with an aged eye
I'm from a past where my memories fly
A place my body was not meant to lie
A place I picture when I need to cry.
I'm from a place of sweet summer wine
A place from where my person did stray
But a place I know my heart will stay
An other place would be way out of line.
Thank you sir for your comments. Despite my age of 90 years I'm a new boy round the block and I need a bit of encouragement. I hope to speak to you again. I hope also to become familiar with your work.
