There are places I remember...In My Life


There are places, I remember,
all my life though some have changed
some forever, not for better
some are gone,





and some remain
all these places have their meanings
with lovers and friends I still can recall,
some are dead and some are living...
in my life, I've loved them all.


But of all these friends and lovers,
there is no one compares with you.
And these memories lose their meaning
when I think of love of something new.

Though I know I'll never lose affection for people
and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them.
In my life, I love you more.
Though I know I'll never lose affection for people
and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them.
In my life, I love you more.
 I'm calling my best friend Pauline (since Kindergarten) to say "I'm so glad we're friends and have shared so many things through over 50 years!". who is your special person? your sister, cousin, friend, mom ? who can you make smile and feel special today? Jennifer

 Hugs to you Pauline, remember Franklin Lakes, the library, elementary school, double dating, raising our kids together, Terrace Lake, Darlington, dances, work,Tupperware parties, making clothes, long dresses, your mom, my mom , your Cadillac, my bug?

Nan - Mom of my heart - red lipstick, perms, bedtime stories, roasted peppers olive oil and crunchy bread, the beach every summer, naps,  the boardwalk at night, salt water taffy, bingo, helping me with my babies, helping me grow up, loving me for who I am. I think of you with a joyful heart because you were on this Earth for 95 years and you KNOW how much we loved you.
