His legend awoke in misty smoke From fancy, not fact are memories stoked

Hi Gershon. True words, played well. I can imagine Shakespeare writing this. I'll have to remember your words so I can quote you. Here's to more from which that came.

Whoa, Jan! Comparing me to Shakespeare... I'm a bit overwhelmed... Actually about one million giga-bytes overwhelmed... But I never look a gift horse in the mouth, so I'll take it, though I don't know if ever I can duplicate it. Many thanks, Gershon

delightful words, Gershon. I like reading anything involving how memories are 'stoked,' okay memories in general. enjoy your day, Sara

Well, memory does have the ability to soften and smooth the edges of life

Memory, being selective, will do that. Thanks, John
