Memory

© Salvador Dali - Persistence of Memory - 1931

bubbles form close to the edge
we delve the stream for thoughts
we lost years ago in close chances

seeking style by starlight and meaning
by moonlight -- simple in theory

knowing the etching of recurrence
remembering requires
 patience as much as repetition
to recall,
            understanding accompanies
reason through musical mnemonics
etched indelibly.
 So vivid,
it
  will always be there
                                if one wants it.
And yet....
what do you remember?
