Echoes Of My Mind Poem by Frederick Nellist

Echoes are magic brought to mind
Recalling memories some undefined
Verbal illusions come out to play
Weariness of age is soothed away.

Ghostly visions my mind confound
Images lost in time now all found
Memories arousing sleeping ages
Reflected time turning minds pages.

In far flung corners of my mind
Long lost memories the echoes find
I dream again of dreams long ago
Each time I dream the echoes flow.

Barriers that passing time has built
Assailed by echoes surely will wilt
Echoes encountered if only by chance
Persuading memories to come and dance.

There's no distance, long miles to go
When my mind converses with my echo
My echoes are blessed we'll never part
Deeply entrenched close to my heart.
