On an Afternoon Walk ~ Walking with Memories

February 22, 1916 - December 16,1971





Striding out with purpose ~ bareheaded, my toque left behind, winter jacket open to the breeze, gloves dropped carelessly in my shopping bag. I avoided silty puddles blessed by sun and slushy shivering ice patches in shade.


Carrying my mom’s memory with me,

I felt the strength of life and limb

in the joy of the being in the sun.


“Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.”

~ Emily Dickinson
