Nothing but a Keepsake

Nothing but a Keepsake

 

On a glorious day

like today

I really have no idea

What I might

prefer to be doing

Other than

what I am doing

right now

and right here

and with you …

But if it hadn’t all

gone quite

so terribly wrong

We would surely

have

done it long ago ..

And the Caribbean

would almost

certainly be a glorious

sea of memories

Instead of just

a faded postcard

saved

in a broken keepsake

box

upon a dusty

mantle shelf somewhere
