NOSTALGIA

by Gary Jurechka   Nov 25, 2005


Caught in cobwebs of the past
consuming heart, mind, and vision
left to breathe the dust of dreams
and regret.

Yesterday is just a corpse
that can only be visited
in the graveyard of memories.

    Seeing as "nostalgia" is just about my fav word, and u are a well-extablished poet over here, that reli caught my eye
    i havent been visiting here that often lately..

    anyway, this poem was just amazing.. im surprised u havent been getting that many reviews..
    incredible emotion and GOD its short, but so expressive.. i loved the imagery, and thnk God i stopped seeing rhyme as necessary a loong time ago :)

    ur first stanza was just breath-taking.. this is explicitly how i feel almost all the time.. thnk you for writing out what i had in mind all this time :) im sure i cudnt hv put it better or more precisely..

    thank you for sharing
    keep up the talent
    5/5, blindly
    take care
