Words.

The kind of words that evoke vivid emotions and wake memories on a shelf 

long hidden under a thick

fuzzy

coat of dust.

Obscured by bound volumes of the every day 

wrapped in layers of soft fondness

pulled out

and gently examined  as sunlight gently filters through the window.

A delicious aroma wafting through the air

inviting you 

drawing you deeper into the memories

asking you to stay a while

and

remember.
