Opening Drawers

I don’t shut my dresser drawers; clothing old and new barely visible makes a neat room a bit messy

Memory is like that ~ drawers storing our pasts with ideas, beliefs, and lives tumbled out to be shuffled and sorted.

Birthdays open one more drawer
with connections made on that special day ~
Memories, barely visible, tumble out of the drawers

with phone calls, best wishes and shared experience.

“A happy birthday is measured not in the amount of gifts one gets, 

but in the amount of love one receives.”
