A river of memories flows through me Its current runs swift ~ past the willow tree

My memories go incredibly quickly - here for a second, then gone before I can capture it.

I hope that they were happy memories, Gershon. The weeping willow tree seemed relevant to me in your lovely rhyme. Take care, Shirley

Yes, the willow is the key... So why can't a willow be 'happ-y? I wonder!

Me too but I’m looking at the present. I realize that I need to move into the future. The past relentlessly torments but the future is bright. An example some songs bring bad memories…I’m done with that! Just ranting….lol

Memories go flashing through our mind like a flowing river. It never stops though its tides may get softener or more furious from time to time. A cute little poem Gershon.
