Rummaging...

Just while flicking through some times gone by.......

Rummaging through old phographs ...messages...letters

Sharing anecdotes and incidents

Laughing together on fond recollections

Or smiling by my self alone

Eyes glistening with unshed tears

Or uncotrollable sobbing

Or just waves of nostalgia

Wistfulness or regret

Kaleidoscope of images

Snapshots...scenes replayed

Reliving happiness

Or a  vicious cycle?

 

Myriad moods get unleashed

In my trips down memory lane

I am very happy to see you writing something after quite sometime. Quite frankly, you haven't lost it, they're as great as they have always been.

Pictures carry on its tags in our brains, either we identify with the situation the picture was taken (thus bringing out all our emotions and memories) or relate to a picture we see (the ambient memory is tagged here, thus, letting us experience the situation in a similar stage). This also gives us a good feel, especially if the cultural colors are emphasized. Pictures in other places, like good paintings, bring us to that place or vacation while we are elsewhere. Pictures have a wonderful way of traveling through time and space. It goes against the law of physics :)

Great form, great use of words (I always loved your word choices), well painted imagery, very well imparted message.

A very good piece

Thank you... for writing such a beautiful piece. It is absolutely lovely. It made me recall events in my life, that i have, until then, not thought of for a very long time. This poem is very well written, and extremely relatable.

That was very nicely-put, Candle in the Wind. You've expressed things that I, too, have pondered. Sam
