Tell Me A Memory
Carol and I play this game. "Tell Me A Memory" (I made it up)
She tells me one of her favorites and I tell her mine. It gets a little emotional (duh) ,but it does help me realize the wonderful life I have had.(here is the poem) hugs kenny
Tell Me A Memory
by kenny merrell
Tell me a memory of times past
where we captured the moon
the stars so bright we traced our name in the sky
Rainbows in bands of color bright
showed the way to treasures of the mind,
time was but a word and
dreams always had happy endings.
Tell me a memory as we sit holding hands
and cry of news of sadness and
think of the words “In sickness and in health” and
“For better or for worse “ which were only random concepts to contemplate
Now each day becomes a memory
As sunrise and sunset become brighter, purer,
a precious gift from our Lord and Savior
we share with each other and marvel at such a life
Tell me a memory
Where “Now I lay me down to sleep”
Etched in stone ,tossed into the sea
Tells a memory

Kenny you need to publish these poems for the kids. actually if you just print out your blog the poems would all be there and then you can put them into a 3 ring binder.
Carol, take care of him!!
Carol, I am so sorry for your loss of Kenny, I know how much the two of you meant to each other. He will be missed!
Carol, Kenny's poetry told the love he had for you and life! I am sorry for your loss.
Carol: "Pete" and I are so sorry to hear of Kenny's passing. He was always wonderful, kind, loving, and funny.
