the past
Or do I ever cross your mind…
By Silver Blue
Last night was a strange night, with strange dreams. Today has been a strange day. In all honesty, 2011 has been a strange year.
Even for all that, I stumbled across a photo of me, from years (and decades) gone by.
I’m old enough (I think) to sit up on my own (I may have been propped up — but still), so…that would have put this photo as late 1969, or very early 1970.
In the ensuing years, I’d like to think I’ve touched many lives. Sure, I could have done a better, more gentle “touch” to some people, but the past is the past, and I can’t go back and change that.
However, in everything that has passed (and that has gone on recently), I just wonder if I cross some people’s mind, and if they smile about the time when our paths joined.
Do you ever recall those old memories at all?
Silver Blue, who’s amazed by the number of will-o’-the-wisps that I’ve seen tonight, in my living room, as if they’re attempting to help me remember…something. If I could only figure out what it is.
