Do you ever wonder how we can <br />Remember so many things? <br />Our memory bank is endless <br />With all the thoughts life brings <br /> <br />We go way back into our childhood <br />Year after year thoughts fill <br />Up our heads right to the brink <br />And we remember them still <br /> <br />All the people we’ve met, oh my <br />So many it’s impossible to count <br />The list goes on and on and on <br />Every single day it mounts <br /> <br />The places we lived, things we did <br />The prices of this and that <br />The folks we loved and cherished <br />The conversations and angry spats <br /> <br />And as we get older and older <br />Of the elderly we become a member <br />We sit around with our friends <br />Constantly asking, “Do you remember? ”<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/do-you-remember-25/
