In the Attic

Busy hands digging out age-old memories deep buried under the shroud of dust. What was forsaken is found again once more as eyes well up with tears and lips swerve by laughter. Date: 11/06/2017 Note: For the contest (Photo-Story) by Eve Roper. *Placed Second*

A very poignant poem, Afzal. I love the combining of tears (of joy no doubt) and laughter. That is the heartfelt reaction of finding those forsaken things in the attic. Beautiful poem w/nostalgic truth dusted off by your gentle pen. Aurora bright write. Love and joy always.
