The colour, the context, contrast,
even the commitment, is found
beyond the superficial elements
that make up our daily details.
It’s relatively easy to recall events
or days of even long-ago.
Go further.
Go past the familiar. Get personal.
Write it out.
Open up. The people, the sounds,
the emotions worthy of recollection
will come to you.
You’ll remember what matters.
