Notes About The Poem

Projection

“If the doors of perception were cleansed,
everything would appear as it is - infinite” — William Blake

PROJECTION

They don’t come back
those ghosts
except of the past
rewatch the host
of recollections
forgotten with time
as if a new day exists
for the loved one you miss

Valsa George November 15, 2021 at 8:26 PM Though forgotten with time, those dear ones gone out of sight will come to the surface of our thoughts, igniting sparks of pain and longing ! Beautifully poignant and terse, Kim! Kim Rodrigues November 16, 2021 at 5:42 AM Thank you, Valsa! They surely do.

Caren Krutsinger November 11, 2021 at 11:27 AM This is so poignant and true "rewatch the host of recollections forgotten with time" Wow! Kim Rodrigues November 11, 2021 at 5:16 PM Inspired by watching videos of family I’d probably never have seen. Funny moment with my son near a playground slide with a huge sub sandwich in his hands, biting off a piece and some video of my mom (dad had tears) all as we watched the videos my niece pieced together of my nephew.
