Jack 91

Joyful memories surface, every once in a while
Evidenced by bright eyes and a half formed smile

Catching special moments previously enjoyed
Helping to soften an ever increasing void

The magic of retrieving such gold from the past
Trying to focus on the now and not worry how long it may last
