Remember, remember, remember

Remember, remember, remember 

The dogwood leaves were motionless this morning 

Silent in the morning sunshine 

Yesterday they danced in a slight breeze , 

Gently grasped by the smallest hand 

-Holding the grandest gesture 

-Life itself 

Remember these early mornings remember- remember the newness of the texture of both the leaf and her joy and smile

And  the many emotions and connections being made 

 that wonderful little mind wanting to share it all with others around

Remember 

Remember “while your young”

The Creator and life

Remember the fleeting life-

As a dogwood leaf “slips through your fingers”

Remember it all in full color and expression 

Remember, remember, remember  Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta

About this poem:  Remember, remember, remember is a poem about the fleeting time in the mornings we experienced with our granddaughter in September. Each new leaf, its texture is color, brought joy, and a smile to her- and she wanted to share it with everyone. Her new find , her new prize. O if I would just experience all of life like she did and remember, remember, remember to share the joy and the prize of each day. - Joe Holuta
