Back Roads Of My Mind Poem by David Harris
Back Roads Of My Mind
Your memories fill each waking hour
You face fills each and every thought
Of the times we had together
That surface from the back roads of my mind
I remember the fields of bluebells
Where we used to walk hand in hand
The trees we used to lean upon
While we rested for a while
All these things and more linger for eternity
And you will find them
Written with a special love
On the back road of my mind
They were written with love’s pen
And if you look close into my eyes
You will see them there all the time
Written on the backs roads of my mind
Your memories are anchored there
Never straying away
Resting with love forever
On the back roads of my mind

There's nothing Dodgy about this one, Dave! Seriously, it's beautiful and let's the reader share in your devotion to your lady. How lucky she is to be the recipient of all this. A heart-warming read. Love to you both, Fran xxx
This is one of the things I wonder about from time to time: just how long do those perfect memories last David? Like everyone else I have a whole array of them that I'd hate to lose or even have them fade. This is a very moving and very gentle poem - perfectly suited to its subject matter. It speaks of a sensitive heart. Well crafted emotion impact. Thank you, jim
Wow, you've really expressed the emotions through cleverly picked words here,10/10! Thanks for sharing, great read. Emily -x-
David, this is so very beautiful, I can see why you thought I would like it. It has the bluebells and the trees in there, of course the parts that got me weren't the stunning scenery but the emotion and the sentiments conveyed throughout. Brought a little tear to my eye yet I enjoyed reading it immensely. HG: -) p.s can't find the 'All roads lead to you'..... am I blind? ?
I love how you defined those old storehouses we keep in our heads as 'the back roads of our minds'. What a cool way of putting it. I adored this piece, as it made me take a little walk down the 'back roads' of my own mind. Thanks for the wonderful poem!
