Memories
Trapped inside bubbles
Inside a glass globe
Fresh but old
Like a pressed flower
Waiting to be opened
And loved again
But when we touch them
Them
Like delicate petals
Close shut
Except
Like bubbles
Blown in the wind
They burst
The memories gone
Like broken glass

Memories are to be kept gently, and to be looked at, again and again ?
