mumbled memories
Mumbled Memories
by Annette Gagliardi
Mumbled moments
obstinately tenacious,
cling to what’s left of my mind.
Mystery memories
half-gone in a twinkling,
emerge as my life unwinds.
Mention the name
of my lover and spouse
and hope that I catch it in time.
Touch me just so
as if you must go,
And I’ll whisper that I will be fine.
