A Perfect Memory

Do you hold a perfect memory

                      deep within your heart

a secret place so special

                       it burns like an ember

 is it of a perfect night,

                         an evening to remember with your lover

     or perhaps a day at the beach 

                                    flying kites with your children 

we all share this unique gift 

to recapture

a mindfulness of past

twilights and sunsets 

                                       and sunrises to remember

they pass in an instant

                       but stay with us forever a lifetime

a warmth in the belly so palpable 

like the sun on your face

a hug, a cuddle, a kiss

 of a time gone by that embraces

                     our senses aglow

 in the summer breezes of reflection

of a time that stood still

                       to enrich our very soul's awareness

it's a quiet thunder which lives within

                       the soft embraces of recollections

This was beautiful I loved it, so well written

My memory would be sitting on my grandfathers lap as he watched Bold & the Beautiful and I'd remember him abuse the characters of the show whenever they had an affair with every other person on the show..Omg he loved that show he'd even take me to my neighbors house if our cable went down, he wouldn't miss the show for the world. He was a strict man but that time we spent we were like two kids watching something fascinating.
