Remembrances

Remembrances of days gone by,

Secure within the soft hands

And gentle arms of care.

Being without knowing

Living in the now.

The senses spring to life,

Discovery and confusion

I am me but who are you?

Being and beginning to know,

Living for the future.

Fantasies become reality,

They seemed better then than now,

And we reach for the beyond.

Knowing without fully being,

Wishing for the past.
