Theme: Memories

Memories Remain Etched

Memories remain etched
on an old vintage mirror
framed in teak.

Each of them reminds me
each day
sometimes in
clusters
of distant galaxies
bound
unbound
like old streets
like older buildings
smelling only of you.

Memories are coins
with two sides,
each side shows
a different sky
we shared.

I hold aloft the mirror
when it seems I am
tumbling.
Ageing is not
the mirror
etched with our
memories
streamlined in haphazard
fashion.
They all live within
me.
