William Kelii Kekaula Poet Haibun

Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

As Memory Serves

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
