The sun packed away its sorrows and went


Below the horizon in steep descent,


Oozing blood into silent lakes.


Now is the time for a leisurely stroll,


Long lost memories gently to cajole,


Recalling past joys and heartaches.


 


The moment I saw “that” smile on your face…


The rapture I felt in our first embrace…


A teardrop on your eyelashes…


The touch of your hand, the silk of your hair…


Acacia scent in a hot summer’s air…


Memories flow in fast flashes…


 


The road leads nowhere… past merge with present…


Down went the sun… the moon is a crescent…


After summer comes the hard frost…


I stand by the lakeside as darkness fall;


Memories can soothe… they can also maul…


…Illusions of the moments lost…

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
