Memories & Moments

The memories of you are so happy.  Once again I'm insatiable.  I want more.  The longing is so strong to keep building memories.  Simple things--the belt I wore today reminded me of the giver, a song I listened to took me back to a shared couch.  Even a world apart it can happen--walking/blading together, trying to make you laugh just to enjoy the sound, shared drinks, hearing college anecdotes complete with illustrations.  Is all this evil?  Or is it the craving, the hunger that grows on the memories, that tarnishes the taste and numbs the present moments.  Right now, I choose to live in the moment.  Right now, I choose to enjoy--  
the happy sound of children playing  
sunshine  
fall colors on the trees  
the perfect temperature  
relaxation after a long day  
time  
thinking  
memories  
In this moment, I am happy; I am content.
I choose to remember this moment  
I choose to return again  
I choose to remember  
I choose the good
