Watching Past Videos Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Memories tempting me with fun and good times of
yesterday.

Loving to go back and watch myself as a child,
seeing the purity and innocence I had before
growing up.

Using photographic memories to bring pleasure
into a boring day at times.

Reliving moments of the past help ease the lone-
liness, being able to see parents and loved ones
again in my mind.

Bringing tears of joy and sadness at the same time,
letting them flow as I continue to watch the videos
of my past.
