Memory Has Possibility

Is my self today, what it was?

That may be what memory doea.

As it fades it changes things.

and sometimes past selves take wings.

Our memories may not be true

but may have been added to.

If we should lose our memory

it becomes possibility.

We should not mourn our own loss.

It means that we are the boss.

We can remember our selves

as being good-hearted elves.

Perhaps all of us should know

memory can also grow.
