HAUNTINGS

        Could it be
That what we call memories
          Are really hauntings
familiar images from the past
          That oft come to your mind
The sounds of loved ones voices
         That you think you sometimes hear
Dreams that come to you
          While you are yet awake
The same song playing over and over
          In your head
         Could it be

Hi Linda...

our memories can definately haunt our waking moments... excellent theme for your poem... only saw a couple of things... was in the second line.. what, could that be what you meant.. and really had an extra L in it. by the way.. that sure is one pretty peering eye.. enjoy your works.. Richard

Thank you

I will correct the typo, I read and read again, and still miss things like that. The one eye is due to I am having trouble changing my picture, in spite of following directions, and I meant to have a bigger picture on there, like maybe at least 2 eyes. Thank you again

Linda...

well that one eye is sure a nice one... I saw your forum but then saw that you had changed your picture... anytime there is a technical question, Andrew is the wizard around here... Richard

ahh memories

don't we wish that some would be as crystal clear in feeling as when experiences actually happenned? I think not feeling them is worse than having them totally fade. And the ones we try so hard to forget, that we refuse to feel, seem still so real. Nicely done Linda 8) Mark
