The fading memories still fill the heart <br />Like the wind’s footfalls on the lonely <br />desert. <br />Sweet memories are the persistent calyx <br />That wraps up the sap of the fallen fruit. <br />Sweet memories are the Arabian attar <br />That overspread the decaying pulp. <br />A man dies rather with sweet memories. <br />06.12.2003<br /><br />Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sweet-stays/
