My Keeping Room

Contributed by Dot on Thursday, 5th December 2002 @ 05:20:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Nostalgic



Twilight hour approaches;
gently brushing aside the day.
'Tis time to light the candles;
unfinished tasks are tucked away.
I've kindled the logs in the fireplace;
its cozy warmth draws me nigh.
There's my red velvet chair,
faded and warm;
if you listen, you'll hear my soft sigh.
I've closed out the world;
drawn the drapes to the sill,
then I fastened the shutters;
snuffing out autumn's chill.
Tears fall down my face,
as I fetch out my memories;
even those that have torn me apart.
Sad, sweet memories tucked inside of;
my precious keeping room; my heart.

Thank you very much, sandwich cookie. Thank you for reading my new poem. I love winter for one reason that no matter what may lie outside my door, I can feel safe and snug inside. I love being alone with my thoughts and I don't mind a raging blizzard outside. In fact, it's inspiring to me. I love your comments. Dot
