Not So Long Ago Poem by Richard Wlodarski
Not So Long Ago
There was such a time...
When we had lived
In peacefulness
Of a time not
That long ago
There was indeed such a wonderful time
When all that we breathed in was such great joy
Of a time lost in only yesterday
And today was only a breath away
There was indeed such a prosperous time
When all that life breathed in was inspiration
Of such a great time in cosmic consciousness
Spirituality the essence of being
There was this simple joyous wonderful time
When Christmas was each and every single day
Of a time lost in the breathtaking fairy land of children
And today embodied all of yesterday and tomorrow
There is a time when...
All the pure joy of
Our childhood
Is nicely expressed
Old is young again
There is a time when... All the pure joy of Our childhood Is nicely expressed....I profusely admire this bit of endearing expression. A beautiful poem....5 stars.
You said it Richard. Spirituality is the essence of all beings......beautiful...10
Poet Menon, I am honoured that you have added my poem to your favourites.
As Dilipji has said, the pure joy of the childhood so vividly captured with exceptional clarity. Very emotive write…
Part 2. Sweet memories of my childhood, school-days… my sweetest ‘primary' school where our class-teacher Ayisha Teacher guide me through the alphabets, while every child in the class simply cries, know not what for… and the beautiful teacher consoling each with her motherly affection..
Poet Menon, it makes me very happy that my poem has triggered for you the sweet memories of your childhood. And what would we have done had we not had those compassionate teachers! The memories of them always makes me smile. some
" Old is young again" is how you conclude the poem. I feel so very nostalgic about my childhood, after reading this poem. So very sweet memories …. (Contd)
