Like clouds they appear, gently at times, urgently at others, jolting us from our daydream existence. Thoughts of yesteryear, yesterday, this morningโฆ what ifs and what could besโฆ whys and howsโฆ remember thems and remember whens. Teardrops fill laughter lines, hearts beat sometimes faster, sometimes heavier. Answers are gleamed. Questions raised. Blanks are filled, names are remembered. Schooldays. Away days. Even boring rainy days. Unfinished plansโฆ realised dreamsโฆ successful outcomes paired with future goals.
Old friends, one-time friends, zany friends, and strangers with familiar faces.
Places. Favourite places. First-time places. Pass-through places. Meant to go places. Even scary places.
Glances. Secrets. Wishful thoughts and hidden regrets. Happy moments. Cherished moments. Wished Iโd bottled them moments.
Cheerful hellosโฆ tearful farewells.
Missed opportunities and moments grabbed.
Flavours. Scents. Sounds. Sights. Sensations. Vibrations. Imagination! Exhilaration!!
What ifs and what could besโฆ
Blanks are filled. Teardrops fill laughter lines.
Happy moments.
My moments.
Memories.
Even boring rainy days.
