Deja vu
Waking after err and silence
amongst the wicker baskets
in a place where time sits
I took out my photo album
Sticking the needle to the beginning,singing
The only cries were when you were tired
waking upon nights shadows lurking
flexing soft fingers laughing
As I'd sigh hi my Baby
Hum my best tones resting a kiss between beats
And there we skip to golden hair
locks trimmed with timid feet
eyes of snow sky peeking
where even kings fell beneath
Long grow lashes brushing porcelain
Past flashes elementary my Dear
middle school sprint high school spirit
bareback horseback to English prim
all and awe in a grin
Hellion hellcat turning twenty one
Then flip to another page
Babe of tender yesterday
tends the cradle, rocking
Her way moving boulders over
Where all starts are carved
amongst the wicker baskets
in a place where time sits
I took out my photo album
Sticking the needle to the beginning,singing
The only cries were when you were tired
waking upon nights shadows lurking
flexing soft fingers laughing
As I'd sigh hi my Baby
Hum my best tones resting a kiss between beats
And there we skip to golden hair
locks trimmed with timid feet
eyes of snow sky peeking
where even kings fell beneath
Long grow lashes brushing porcelain
Past flashes elementary my Dear
middle school sprint high school spirit
bareback horseback to English prim
all and awe in a grin
Hellion hellcat turning twenty one
Then flip to another page
Babe of tender yesterday
tends the cradle, rocking
Her way moving boulders over
Where all starts are carved

I like the imagery that came to me as I read this. And the end made me sigh . Very nostalgic feel . Great ink.

This is beautiful. All the stages of growth and maturation - and the love is evident.

This is a piece where emotions come in tiny layers, it can be a sad feeling to realize how fast children grow, all the stages include different areas in ones own life, it is a constant process....Great one, Soul!

I love these strolls down memory lane kind of poems
They express so much love in every word, in every snap shot of life revealed. Truly lovely Soul:-)

Wonderful images, Soulman. "Long grow lashes brushing porcelain," is a terrific line.
