Sometimes my recollections
Are fantasies come true
Memories I might recall
Old times I now renew
Friendships that I should relive
Not merely in my dreams
These joyful moments reappear
More often it now seems
The first time that I fell in love
Or when I first was kissed
Trips to nowhere hand in hand
Are now most often missed
Birth and death and in between
Each second that I live
And everything I now recall
That I in life forgive
From childhood in innocence
To passions that I’ve shared
Each journey made to someone’s heart
Each one for whom I’ve cared
It’s hugging someone just because
No reason need be known
A Christmas or a Birthday card
A call upon the phone
It’s children blessed into my life
God’s gift of love and strength
A daughter grand to spoil me
And give my dreams new length
It’s mom and dad and brother Lou
True friends from college lost
A war I fought but never won
With life the greatest cost
It’s all the things I’ve never done
And those I’d like to do
But most importantly of all
It’s loving all of you
Devin
Truly my greatest treasure
Is the family and friends
Who have touched upon my time | | © 2009 David Devaney |
