Raindrop of Memories

by Neva Flores

Who never passed upon a thought, then found it renewed
Like a compass pointing towards the North again
Is this a tribute which our heart ensues
Or, our minds merely
Playing tricks
In vain

Is there not a breeze that walks amidst the skies
Catching raindrops of forgotten thoughts
Returning memories to spin and rise
Filling corridors which once
We thought held only
Naught

If a single thought remembered can warm a heart again
Then let me be the water in those skies
A raindrop of memories not in vain
That gently passes through
Your mind and brings
You
Blissful sighs

Neva ... this is seriously really rather beautiful ... It almost (lol) made me cry - The last stanza caught me -:)

Don't you dare cry. ((hugs)) I didn't even know if this one made sense. How often do we poets write and wonder this? I know I do often. Thank you Bath

Each verse could stand alone and form another poem, each just as good. Beautiful overall sound and wordplay.
