Memory

I envy you, remembering

The addresses of your childhood

I remember nothing, not even

Grudges or the names of 

Friends and neighbors

If memory is all we have

I have only you and our years

Together, I remember all that

Every touch, every tender moment

Memories like that are my blessing

My consolation for all my unsung past
