The Sun Still Shines Poem by Joyce Hemsley

In the quietude of my room at last
Here I sit thinking of my past.
With magnifying glass and photographs
What magical spells are cast.

More than half a century ago
Wedding bells rang in the midday glow
Forty years brought a ruby ring
Those happy days made skylarks sing.

In quietude my mind walks once again
Forty years of the past, down memory lane
Happily reliving those God-given years
Magnified photos bring smiles ~ not tears.
