Let it Be Forgotten

Let it be forgotten,
as a flower is forgotten,
Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold,
Let it be forgotten forever and ever,
Time is a kind friend,
he will make us old.If anyone asks,
say it was forgotten
Long and long ago,As a flower, as a fire,
as a hushed footfall
In a long-forgotten snow.

Thats a sad poem, maybe its the rainy weather that makes me sad and blue. But you pictures are uplifting as usual. Take care my friend!

Dear Elisa, I could use some sun too overhere :)

Love this poem, to me it is more melancholic instead of sad.

Big hug to warm you up my friend and I wish you a sunny day,

with love, Sas

wow Sas, somehow i love this one so much.(nice and amazing flower arrangements again~~:))

Maybe there are something needed to be forgotten these days in my life but i still have trouble deciding wether they are meaningless or not...can i just let go those things that are potentially valuable but disturbing now? i mean, what if i throw them away and then be deadly regretful?

how true that "time is a kind friend, he will make us old"...give up to win?sometimes it's not as easy as it sounds.

take care..have a lovely day~
sindi, with hugs:D
