A dusty sheet of paper
lies almost forgotten
between empty pages;
it holds my heart within
a few treasured words,
the first I had written
complete with rhyme;
my heart feels light now,
for what has returned
was much sought after.
Now itβll stay guarded,
like a lone rose petal
hidden in heartβs pages.

November PAD Challenge Day 4. #novpad4 |
The month of November sees the Poem-a-Day (PAD) challenge, hosted by Robert Lee Brewer at Poetic Asides. Day 4 theme is to write a poem on something I found unexpectedly. Recently, while cleaning the attic of old books, I found the sheet of paper on which I had written my first poem almost fifteen years back. I chose to write on that. Thanks Robert for the inspiration.

Do you find that your style has evolved heaps since then? I like to revisit poems I wrote years ago, because they bring back memories, but I don't think I could express how I feel as well as you have Leo… Beautiful words. =)
