Memories Of First Love

First love, the memories of happiness and gifting flowers,

Like the memory of first summer showers.

The nostalgia, as memories flood the mind,

Of our first meeting, first smile, her shyness, that she left behind.

Sweetest moments of life, that passed me by.

Think of those days with a sigh.

Then came the separation, she had to go away.

Etched in my memory, will always that sorrowful day,

She came to me and said, I am leaving for a place far.

Then saw her wishing me goodbye from 

Her car,

Lost my interest in everything, thought of her, never slept.

Wept throughout the day, only wept,

Came to terms with my self, knew what to do.

Had to get on with my life too.

Time went fast, moved on in life met someone,

Fell in love, life was once again fun.

But the memories of my first love will always remain

Some times in happiness sometimes in pain.

Of meeting her first time, of gifting flowers.

Like the fragrance of the earth, from first

Summer showers.
