past happenings that are never lost
MY MEMORY STORE
to Ruby Casey Barger
I have memories of you
Throughout my memory store;
When I'm really missing you
I open its unlocked door.
The room's passageway is clear,
Inside there are many aisles;
I've tagged every one by name
And organized all the files.
I'll take one out and show you,
Let's look at this one called smile;
See, here's a happy picture
Right on the top of this pile.
This file I marked no bother,
And placed it way in the back;
I dump my heartaches in there,
They hangout with each wisecrack.
I count memories by the rows,
Sometimes even by the mile;
But the ones I review the most
Come from our family file.
