Just now a memorycaught my eye.Looking long,I gave a sigh. Without a thoughtI brought you near,to see if Icould maybe hear, your words again,with whispers sweet,like baby’s breathand angels feet. I close my eyesand we are there,enjoying life,without a care. I brush my handacross your face.Inhale a breathto smell that place, where once we playedwhen time stood still,and daisies grewon Green Grass Hill. I turn my gazeback down to youand everythingcomes back in view. The paper smilesin shades of black.I realizeI’m smiling back. An empty well…My eyes stay dry.(I can’t believeI didn’t cry.) I hang you upand walk away.My heart is whereyou’ll always stay.

Thanks to everyone. I’ve

Thanks to everyone. This one was fun to write. I think we all have some childhood place that we frequented… that’s had a parking lot built upon it! Green Grass Hill was topsoil that sat for many years. Eventually it became someone’s front lawn. Peace! Kim (Green Bean)

Simple and sweet, Hate to be a copycat but the third verse was my favorite also real good imagination. Angels feet….. a new thing that is sweet.Patty

Interesting dedications :-).

Interesting dedications :-). I liked the rhythm and simple language used here. This read a little like a chant. I particualrly like the third verse.CheersKazIt’s impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside.
