A hammer blow to the head nearly kills you; yet through retrograde amnesia, later it's all a vague shadow.

A first kiss of a precious lover thrills you to your toes, and you replay it in your mind in vivid detail forty years later.

Painful memories fade.
Delightful memories enhance.

Only a memory?
Memory is a Gift from God.

My dear Jeanette, every piece you write triggers my heartfelt reaction. Perhaps I better stick with the Sunday sports section.

Not a chance! I'm for building memories. Memories to cherish.
How about you?
Love,
Richard

Truly sad, Jeanette, but a truly heartfelt piece.

Oh Jeanette, this is so sad, a poignant look at a love and life missed. It leaves such an emptiness, an unfilled void inside. Very well written and so worth reading again and again.
Love,
CJ

Beautiful composition of a profound subject of the inner feelings...
"Only a Memory" has paid its dues to the treasure of Poetry.

In admiration,
