Past Sight


how green grows the grass in our 
mental backyard?  do we tend to
the soil or just let is waste away?
stroll with me through memories
both bold and weak and let us
together enjoy the past we will
never experience again...  photos
lay dormant in boxes places on
shelves gathering dust, only to be
retrieved when there is a death...
mental images grow weaker with
age as faculties diminish and we
fight the battles of old age and
disease that ravishes our bodies;
how well did you ten your garden
when you were young and full
of the life that is now slowly
seeping out of your veins?  We
are reminded each day of our
memories, most of which are
now only good ones as we have
selectively discarded the bad...
walk with me and try to see the
past for what is really is today.
