A LA RECHERCHE DU TEMPS PERDU

 CHRISTMAS STIRS MEMORIES - 
HERE'S ONE OF MINE
REMEMBERING BRENDAN McINTYRE 


We kept no diaries, 
no records of dates and times, 
we, who came and went to the village of our youth.
We seldom mentioned the quiet joy of meeting ageing faces.

But now they too have gone
to join their parents from earlier days. 
And we who follow them
sense our new positioning in the portraiture of time.

We too belong 
and need only wait our place.
