Priceless treasures


Needled with love, hope,
bits and pieces of childhood,
warm nostalgia.
*******************************
Remnants of old love,
yellowing paper promises,
aroma lingers.

    Oh, yes, how the remnants of old loves linger! (Somehow, though, I wish they didn't!)

    lovely!

    The aroma of old love lingers,indeed.

    But when you find new love, you'd better discard em yellow pages :)

    Cheers
