Give Me the Past

Saturday, November 10, 2007 2:40:32 AM

Envisioned yearning
~~~ for a time long past,
Set sail O traveler
~~~ and raise the mast

Let evening light flow
~~~ from candle and star
Pleasures were simpler,
~~~ distances far

A greater importance
~~~ placed on family and friends,
A singular devotion to purpose
~~~ not trends

How I long for that period,
~~~ more honest and genuine.
It lives still today
~~~ in me deep within

AppreciativeSolitude

Thank you. smile I wrote it a few years ago in a moment of frustration with modernity I guess.
