Best Left

I found a memory today.
 			 
It came my way while pondering

some very unimportant thing

and was itself a minor thought

on nothing much

but in some way it held my mind and touched

a place within I'd thought was lost.

It stayed a while and warmed 

this spot for so long scorned until

I had remembered bit by bit

the reason I’d forgotten it.
