Was it only yesterday?

© Roger Macdivitt 2010

*

Yesterday’s not far away

It’s clearer each day that you live

The older you get

It gets clearer yet

Till you’ve no more of today to give

*

Yesterday’s skies were much bluer

And holidays rolled on and on

Some days in the sun

Seemed like lifetimes of fun

Can those halcyon days really be gone?

*

Yesterday’s just a past word

A label to give now a place

For yesterday stays

Where our memory plays

And brings a broad smile to our face.

*

Yesteday encompassed several years

Our chilhood, our teens plus our prime

But it really seems short

Like a brief passing thought

Like a journey through fantasy time.

*

Yesterday’s friends now departed

Some early and sad in our lives

And some went just now

They took life’s final bow

But somehow their spirit survives.

My dear Sir Roger,

You tugged at my heart with this one.
You brought a tear to my eye and a smile to my face.

My father in law died very recently and hubby was over in England to say good bye and be with him at the last. It brought back memories and feelings of when I went to England to say good bye to my darling daddy. All the emotions came flooding back.

But yet the memories of both men brought a smile to my face.
They are in my heart and will remain there.

Angel cuddles and God bless,
Sarah

Yesterday’s just a past word

A label to give now a place

For yesterday stays

Where our memory plays

And brings a broad smile to our face.

Sarah,

Thank you for letting me know how you felt about my verse.

I'm sorry if I brought back pain but if I made you smile then it was worthwhile.

These verses come from our past experiences and some we inevitably share experiences even if different in detail

Roger.

Hello Roger,
I will second Sarah, since this one really got in my veins. Great Poetry is this you are doing, dear friend.

HI roger,

I too join in on this poem. It is just like life is. Sometimes it seems long, but as we get older we see how short life is.

Thank you for your poem.

Hugs,
Myrna
