Your poetry was so well received.
I loved the way you expressed yourself. It was as if I was reliving your memories of yesterday.
You made me think of my past, trials and successes.
Thanks for sharing.

Excellent sentiments pertaining to our memories. I thought your poem flowed nicely and reminds the reader that even those mistakes that we made in our past helped form us into who we are today. Thanks for sharing.

being "like a mannequin of moments" reflecting on memories, both memories unwanted, never to be relived and those so tightly treasured
seen only as pure gold, that made you who you are...one insightful enough to look back with such introspective thoughts.

J.Raven

This is a lovely poem. The title, "Memories Remembered" you chose is nice. We all have memories, good and bad. I really enjoyed reading your poem. I found no needed revisions. It was an easy read and very touching. Many can share your sediments in this poem.
Stanza 1 - Pondering life
Stanza 2 - Your memories are forever
Stanza 3 - Forgetting unwanted memories and certain ones will never be relived again. I have a few of those.
Stanza 4 - I think we all wonder if we could have done things differently in our life. Especially whether we forgave as much as we should have.
Stanza 5 - Like you, I wonder doing my life's journey if my actions were fair or unfair. No matter what, I also smile.
Keep writing:-)

A mannequin of moments; like that line. Except mannequins can't talk - you can! When we reach a certain age, our minds do wander back to better times or even times we really don't want to remember, wish we could change. There is only One Judge of what we have done, the only thing is do your best and love one another as He first loved us. Well done my friend.

    G'day possum! Keep washing hands. Our fast food outlets are refusing entry and will deliver instead. Bun fights still going on with panic buying. I think Trump is doing the right thing. This is very serious. Aust. virologists have a break-through on a vaccine, need tons of cash for a human testing. We have 454 people infected, Tom Hanks and wife have been in hospital here. He is such a nice person. Has really taken to eating our Vegemite on toast! I canceled the eye surgery. Not going into hospital now. Bad times ahead, besides, I can see and read OK and it's not urgent - they pushed me to sign in the first place. Love 2U my dear friend. Much love, K & Toby XX

    Hi Kace, we have pretty much the same thing...except Tom Hanks and his wife...lol...
    and I think President Trump is doing a great job...but I think some of the things are to much...people here are being laid off...and unless he has money put in the banks of all these people being laid off today...this is going to hurt a lot of people...my niece was just laid off for 30 days...she can't afford that...she lives from week to week...and others around here are being laid off...

    I understand what he is doing...he is waiting for the vaccine to come out...and that's wonderful...but there will be people who can't get them...allergies...and some that just won't...it's a virus...and like all the flu's and viruses we deal with...we have to get immune to them...before this one came along...the flu's and viruses we have now...have killed about 69 thousand people a year...every year...

    China has already closed all but one of the hospitals they put up for the virus...no more people are coming in...most who got it will be immune to it...or not get it s bad next time around...or not at all...

    it is a bad virus...but as the years go by...they are going to get worse...one tries to get stronger than the other...we have to put it in God's hands and know He will protect us...that's what He wants...lets just all pray...well see what happens...love you much too...kiss Toby dog for me...stay safe beautiful girl...xxoo

    from what I am seeing and hearing people with it are saying they aren't having real bad reactions from...no mire than other viruses...it is older people and mostly those with underlined illnesses...most are healing from it....

    "Fear, the only way out is through." The rising death toll is causing a lot of fear. We are trialling a antivirus on humans right now. In some ways, it is a culling. Just like when we cull too many animals. I just wish they wouldn't cull the toilet rolls! Yes, we must look to the Lord for He makes the final decisions. I am medically frail (age, diabetes etc) and what is worse, we are movinging into winter with influenza hovering. The people that have died (mostly) have been frail and in nursing homes (I think) I pray that the World leaders will join hands, you never know, this may bring peace. I am with Trump - China is the source. Much love my dear, dear friend. I look for your letters. Love, Toby (cheeky boy) and me (old fart!) XXXX

Hi Linda,
Lovely to read your poems again.
I feel the weight of the issues you have raised on a personal level as I cast my mind and thoughts back over my own life.
Dear friend this means your words and meaning are powerful and shared by others.
Very nicely told.
Blessings
Shirley

Beautifully crafted poem.. We are all living on a huge baggage of past memories and with a vivid imaginative power.. Past doings can't be changed.. Future is waiting..

Hello, what a lovely work. I think the picture is awesome. Adds such a great initial mood for the poem. I saw no errors, and this is my sort of poem, not sing-songy and over worked. It flows and touches the heart. Cheers, and thanks for sharing your writing, Eve.
