Remembrance
Remembrance is an art
snatched with the bare hands.
Found in the back rooms of haunted
mansions, and forgotten at the quaint
little shops, this piece of memory
tucks and prods at the corners of minds.
Remembrance is rain
after the dusty months of drought
and first touch of frosty snow
on our shoulders still
tanned from the summer months.
We are startled at first sight
and then sit back in our seats
sighing with contentment.
A glimpse of a dream,
a slight gesture of hands,
a strange town that feels like home
is all it takes to stir up
the artist who picks up the brush,
rolls up the sleeves paint up
the landscape and brings out
the statues stored at the attic
of our minds.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIGGO!
Here's to remembering the day when the world was given a person as wonderful as you.

Remembrance
HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIGGO!!
May you continue
living your wild and precious dreams.
I am richer, having you
in my path, no matter how
distinct or faint the impressions
you have imparted.
