Memories

by Kevin T McEneaney

Stories are always a journey through time

that progress toward a realization

with characters who are thought to be “real.”

*

We are quite good at remembering things,

yet stories help us to retain details.

Your acute brain has a storage problem:

 there are only 170

 billion cells to work with on a project….

*

Computers may extend your memory,

if you record your memories each day.

*

The most effective way to remember

is through poetry or memorized songs,

since they have patterns to aid memory.

So, what is your favorite memory?
