Yesterday’s Love


Yesterday’s Love  


A flock of old birds perched on a wire      
Wax nostalgic about the good old days,

"Ah, the water was much wetter back then”         
“And the sky a much bluer shade of blue”

Looking back through the prism of time
History gets selectively distorted

The woes of  yore get neatly suppressed 
To the dark corners of recollection

While sweet memories get magnified
Making today seem pitifully small

Too bad these post rose colored glasses
Can’t be gazed in a forwardly direction
