No Regrets

No Regrets 1

I walked alone on golden sands,
Caressed by a moonlit sea.
Salt scented breezes brushed my hair,
While snow capped waters kissed my hands.

Old memories echoing from ebony pools,
Surrendered by exhausted tides.
Forgotten friends they reappear,
As my tears fall like silvery jewels.

Those childhood years of long ago,
Warm summers spent in harmless play.
Of Halloween and fireworks too,
With Christmas trees and winter snow.

My teens, what joy of that first kiss
Lost innocence in tender arms.
With promise of eternal love,
Those were the days I often miss.

Now the Autumn of my life draws near,
I hear the shepherd calling me.
I am content, Iam satisfied,
His voice it calms my fear.
