The sunset glow opens the doorway
A doorway to the past which
I had kept firmly closed for a while
Some memories that were to be kept hidden
To be cherished like a treasure
Only to be enjoyed when nostalgia strikes
Memories of the sweetest, rarest moments
That may lose some of their charm if relived
………Once too often

Written for PCF, hosted by Paula
Take your inspiration this week from Valspar’s “sunset glow” and/or “nostalgia.” Tag your post Paint Chip Friday, or PCF, if you wish.

I’m not sure if they lose their charm, but perhaps their vibrancy. Great poem Sadje 🙂
