Congratulations on this gem. It must have escaped me ol' blind eyes! Love the art and deep poetry of painful memories. I think we can all go there with you on this one.
All my best,

    Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Sal, -- even though it was for a contest, this is what bad memories become... we try to block them out so much that when we do try to recall them, they're not all there anymore... :) :) Thanx for the review -- take care! :) ;) Yvette

Memories have a tendency to do that, don't they? I love the beautiful and very clever and colorful wording you've used to describe memories. I really like this and enjoyed reading this. Well done and good luck in the contest.

Memories can sometimes tease us and when we reflect we embellish them. I have had these kind of thoughts and your poem resonating with me, love Dolly x

Memories are the making of our life without them we would be an empty vassal of just air. I read all and find that your is the best. This is a powerful entry for the 5-7-5 Poetry Contest.
