Play, Book, Poem Or Song Poem by David Harris

Sometimes little snippets
from our life gone by
can fire our imagination
and make our words fly.
A certain song can evoke
a memory of yesterday
and we will remember a bit of life
that has gone away.
Different scents and aromas
can do the same thing too
and make us travel back
to the days of our youth.
The harshness of any pain
we may have suffered yesterday
time has diminished it slightly
as it moves along its way.
However, with each memory
and inspiring thought,
from it grows into words
for a play, book, poem or song.
