Buenos dias Alkas. Como estas? Have you ever read Marcel Proust's "Remembrance of Things Past"? IT'S EPIC!!! THIS poem made me think of it. Thanks Alkas...

Even NOW I realize that you submitted this poem on May 30th AND I commented on May 30th but am only following that comment with these comments on IT'S ALREADY June 1st... Remembrance of such things past...

Jajaja Alkas I certainly have NOT read ALL of Proust but even, as you say, a few lines INSPIRE!!!

“The possession of what you love is an even greater joy than love.” “Jealousy is often nothing more than a restless need for tyranny applied to the things of love.” “The suffering of love ceases for a moment, but to begin again in a different way.” “We love only what we do not fully possess.”

Proust is sweeping and profound it's an honor that you read all of it... read some parts meditation time is needed a long and arduous task, over time, I still end up reading everything...thank you and salute Jeff! alkas
