Still Waiting for the Spring!

Walking through this paved way
Looking at those fallen leaves
Brings out my faded memories
Of you and your kisses on my forehead!


They were as fresh as the olive green leaves
Still clinging up on those brown branches
Nodding their heads to the blowing cool breeze
Oh then Momma...
You were with me!!


But now as you are gone,
Leaving me alone 
To ponder and to stare
At these fallen autumn leaves,
With just buried memories of you
And your bed time stories!


I'm still walking alone on this paved way
Where we used to walk together
Holding our hands and dreaming....
Just waiting for the spring to return!!
