Recollections

The mind plays tricks

On mundane recollections from the past.

It bogs down in a swamp

Just when it's needed to run fast.

Fleetingly just out of reach,

It wants to be unmasked,

And when it's caught, it breathes a sigh

As it is shared at last.

Recollections told by friends,

Such sweet apparitions.

Calling up a smiling past,

A memory transmission.
