POEM: Bygone Days
This collab was composed for the CPC Saturday Share poetry challenge. Angel Love’s line is “Reflecting upon bygone days.”
BYGONE DAYS
Reflecting once more upon bygone days
and all of my obsolescent ways.
You were so cute in your cinched whalebone stays.
laughing out loud when I diverted my gaze.
The day I made that great base ball play,
hitting a home run under hot sun’s rays,
I said I loved you; you raked your claws,
then asked me why; I said: “well, just because!”
In bed watching the Wizard Of Oz
while off of you I could not keep my paws.
Tippy-toeing across the falls’ stream.
Did that really happen, or was it a dream?
Posing for pictures in front of the Falls
pictures which sharpen now hazy recalls.
Hours of joy we will never forget,
as long as in two hearts their traces are set.
