As Memory Serves A mere bump in time... as bottled cork pops, engaged second hand... conveyed decibels, dons melting, against that instant, "It's a boy!", resonates. Reflecting after those many years, I smiled while he blows... his 44th candled flame, ~~best is poured. gifted memories timelessly bottled uncorks ~~aged wine stirs in ice 2020 June 30
