“Buying a Memory”



“Buying a Memory”

12/12/14

 

Up and down the highways

gift shops and souvenirs

all for a price for a memory

while all about photo ops

experience for the senses

for what the mind sees

in a memory bank for life

conversations with strangers

meeting and finding thoughts

small sea shells in sand

birds landing and flying

catching the salt smell

even finding lost things

preserving a memory

beyond any fiscal cost

smelling roses on the path

seeing, feeling, touching

retained for life within

souvenirs in the gift shops

highway lined with glitter!
