#poem Unexpected Memories from #photographer Claudio Mufarrege #oneshootsunday @OneStopPoetry

Childhood memories

Christmas time

My father’s trains…

Whole worlds rendered in HO scale

Gray scale memories in miniature

Invoked by Claudio Mufarreges photo

Timeless but not trackless

So long ago…

Eyes closed now to find:

Kaleidoscopic images shard into my mind

Joy at age 6

Simple times

Bright colors

Laughter

mingles with the smell of beer

and Marlboro smoke

Family gathering

Tree decorating!!!

Smell of pies baking

Cookies cookies cookies!!!

Feelings of warmth

Of being special, for a moment

Looking up to Dad

Rare moments

associated always with

trains, smoke, and misty memories.

Thank you Claudio Mufarrege

For the unexpected ride

Into memories of time long gone bye

Simpler, sharper, now clear again
