I Remember Spring



Writer's digest PAD Challenge 14:
For today’s prompt, write a memory poem.



I remember spring
The green of love and life
 Where thought unfurled a wonder-world
Of dream-streams running rife 

I remember spring
When time seemed on my side
Before it drew youth's years into
Its unrelenting tide

I remember spring
Uninhibited grin
Before the scars from fallen stars
Etched wisdom's start within 

I remember spring
Then summer came and went
Now Autumn's leaf I know is brief
Ere I am winter-bent



(optional)
I am Autumn-content
Long gone, spring's budding trees
That soft unfurled a wonder-world
Of moments such as these
or
Of precious memories
