Silent Memories Poem by Patricia Gale

Silent Memories

Rating: 4.8


Quiet as a mouse
Not a single sound in the house
My eyes did open to find
It was Christmas Morn

I laid their on my pillow
Thinking the children were not awake
Then I recalled….All grown and
Life’s of their own

How the memories flooded my soul
The voices that called
Mommy wake up its Christmas day!
How they would laugh and play

Christmas wrapping and pretty bows
All across the front room floor
Happy faces and glows all about
Now are silent memories I hold in my heart

Patrica, those memories sparked some off in me of Christmas mornings long ago when my children were young. Though we still have one son at home, still as messy, but not as early. (Thank goodness) Hope you had a lovely Christmas and may I take the time to wish you a Happy New Year 2008. Top marks my friend and thanks for sharing those lovely memories. David

Yes, the memories of christmas mornings are still fresh in my mind as well, of course I still have a 15yr old son at home. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, nicely done. May peace and joy fill your heart this holiday season. Scott
