Old Melodies Long locked inside the dark my heart took sudden flight my eyes did see the light through old sorrows Darkness tells of old days taken by memories so long old melodies lost to my mind ©AnitaDawes2022

Anita, this is excellent. You have some unforgettable lines: “my eyes did see the light
through old sorrows.” That last stanza was exceptional. You might have found your new favorite form. ❤
