PERSONAL MEMORY TRIGGER....
Images stir us alive, never forgotten
An avenue of trees, decked in blossom
You have a favourite memory you hold
Lift spirits, make you happy acting bold
Whether fragrance, adds to the pleasure
I love from my past, but I cannot measure
Against memories, retained in my heart
Drifting back in time, and miles apart
Past images so strong, special to me
Build momentum, each time I see
Nature's image, tree lined streets
Or farmland orchards, for family meets
Links carried, from strangers who cared
Designing avenues, for the future to share
Different sides of universe, a trigger too
To stir inner emotions, for those passing through
Pockets of special places, dot world's spaces
Lifting smiles, to visitors-residents faces
Little reminders, triggers of the mind
Personal video camera, to emotionally bind

About this poem:
do we ever give up those special memories that link us with childhood or youth....and with so many ensuring triggers are established in countries around the world miles apart, it's like tributing to a form of home sickness...
felt by many who have made another country their home.....

I have not lost anything of my memories,but because of the amount of meditation,I feel clearly,that all my past was like experienced by an other person ....and it make me in most things free from blaming other people,but also my self for my own wrong doings.
Your poem is wide and deep and tell it all about the power of the memories
