I keep the things I love Hidden within a box Little things I love the most Things that to me mean so much Fathers old pocket watch Momas golden mothers ring Carefully put away Safe in a box unseen A precious letter written By a loved ones tender hand Gently wrapped in an aged cloth And tied by a ribbon band A photo from long ago Taken at a special time Kept through so many years Brings back a memory fine I keep these things I cherish That can never be replaced Inside a box of memories Where there I think them safe Today, I take them from the box To look upon them every day So that the memories they recall In my mind shall never fade RLB January 22,2017

Memories In A Box
I keep the things I love Hidden within a box Little things I love the most Things that to me mean so much Fathers old pocket watch Momas golden mothers ring Carefully put away Safe in a box unseen A precious letter written By a loved ones tender hand Gently wrapped in an aged cloth And tied by a ribbon band A photo from long ago Taken at a special time Kept through so many years Brings back a memory fine I keep these things I cherish That can never be replaced Inside a box of memories Where there I think them safe Today, I take them from the box To look upon them every day So that the memories they recall In my mind shall never fade RLB January 22,2017
