Songs


songs from long ago play in my mind
I look only forward, forget what’s behind
the mellow tunes repeat, making life full
the colors expand as I’m duly resigned
to connect the dots that fill the picture
like a fine mosaic that becomes a scripture
for study and learning life’s no longer dull
the remedy of joy comes in a tincture
so far, so good, the benefits come
in droves, marking the days at home
so much to lighten the spirit once null
and repair the memories as they roam
around the world, bringing forth delight
remembering the names of all as I might
