"Your memory still finds me" is a lovely opening line, as your poem traverses the sad memories of your first love, the little freckle-faced red haired girl. You shared your sandwich and your heart... you must have been a sensitive child.

Isn't it amazing how those 'loves of our youth' can still affect us so many decades along? This is a wonderful offering celebrating that connection - best of luck at the polls! ;)

Awe, this is cute, sweet, with a little romantic feel to it. I know that for just about everyone, their was a special someone whether it was reciprocal or not. I really like this and enjoyed reading this inspirational and well written work. Well done!

Yes, I too remember a person from decades ago. Memories, if they are good ones, can please us even at later dates. This is a good entry for the He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not contest. Good luck!

This is a beautiful, moving poem. The tone is poetically bittersweet, and the brief story--brief like the life of the orange-haired girl--is memorable and sad.

What a sad poem! It really is heartfelt. I like the imagery of the speckled face and red hair. The sandwich that was shared and the emptiness felt because of her not returning to school due to sickness. Best wishes!

So sad. My baby sister was a little red haired girl, with spun gold tips. We loved it when she said,"Did you hear that? Wook at that wed head." I'm sorry that it sounds like she did not survive the year for some reason. Your story sounds true.

This is a sad love story. It is well written because it evokes a lot of emotion in the reader. We all have someone that we have longed for over the years and this is a reminder of that love. Well penned poem. -January L.

A very well-written poem about a lover that goes before us that we find difficult to forget when they were a lifetime part of our lives. After years, we can still remember every little detail about them.
