––––––––a sight swims in and then fades–––––––– I could, at one time, grasp the day its tails and wings, the colour all its sounds and visions vivid splashing in my eyes I did, once in time, breathe the ocean clear my lungs, taste the sea watch the seagulls dive for dinner washing up the waves I have, before, heard the morning the horn of the hunters, bells and song cast over the landscape in ululations and travelling ever beyond I know, even now, of worlds beyond mine shimmering in hope, bursting with laughter warming the hearths of every home with life but somehow, I seem to have forgotten cannot hold the whispers in seconds lose my thoughts in moments and forget even faces
