Unforgettable Memories

poem by: Gerry Legister
Written on Jul 12, 2016

While Earth sleeps under a blanket of stars,
The silent sand lay still in expanding desert 
Beautiful sunset arrange the changing colors
Of the sand with softening translucent heat.

Lush plantation explores valleys and Glens,
Towering mountain peaks reach into the sky, 
Watch breath-taking Sandstones glitter like gems, 
We are born to live a moment of time in serenity.

While we are here selected to cross the line, 
Eternity elsewhere is void of our inspired days,
Reserve the deeds that have passed through time, 
Mapping the course of virtue our character displays.
   
A unique spiritual experience mythical and bliss,
Places in life paint picturesque portraits of time, 
Magical metamorphism of unforgettable memories,
Allowed to live briefly, for now, a moment of a divine. 

History carved into our world the thrills conceived, 
That will make nations grow into thriving metropolis,
We dwell where unforgettable moments are lived 
In great cities name after our sporting Heroes.

.........and it goes on and on in a circle - around the Sun (the True One) until the resting period - and with the new Big Bang we meet again, nicely composed - enjoyed reading it.
