Down Memory Lane
He had stubbed his toe
or tripped!
His brain stays foggy.
Thoughts float,
transient as snowflakes:-
My wife.
A serene garden.
Flowers.

A gravestone. Whose? Hers!
Tears form.
Yet he steps forward,
smiling.
Ol' brain operates!
Back porch;
A still, empty swing.
Alone, but for a trip down memory lane.

A foodie and a poet wrapped in one deadly combination. I can dig it.

You could make a poem out of a 14 word Blockchain wallet phrase!
One of my altcoin wallets that didnt have much in it ended up startig with "inline swagger" lol sometimes the 14 word phrase for a cypto currency private key seed ends up being like its own poem haiku!

Lol so coincidental that the letters ended up forming a real word ;)
