Jayne Louise Davies Poems

Distant memories lost in time,
I close my eyes and think of you.
Memories of the way we were,
Glaze my eyes, like morning dew.
...

I sit near the window,
The mountain in view,
The garden's so quiet,
Flowers are few,
...

I long for the night,
When I'll hold you so tight,
In my dreams,
Once again we are young,
...

Old age is a must for all of us,
But with it brings aches and pains,
My prescription list's getting longer,
And my stamina's gone down the drain,
...

I remember those long hot Summers as if they were yesterday,
When the sun shone down on our street, the place I loved to play.
For many a window glistened, cleaned well to a sparkling shine,
Where starched white shirts blew gaily, on many a washing line.
...

In my memory there you lie,
Precious memories,
Years gone by,
Always the apple of my eye,
...

I sat down, onto the large leather chair,
Looking around at the others, already sitting there.
Faces of people I didn't know,
Some glanced at me,
...

My nights at the disco now over,
My days of The Bump truly gone,
For age doesn't come by itself you know,
My feet have a mind of their own!
...

Dependant on dreams,
Just to get through,
Hoping each night,
I get to see you.
...

I walked away that sunny day,
Never to see your face,
It's been one long eternity,
My life's so out of place,
...
