elise

 

 

do you remember lucerne as i do

putting francs

into the meter for hot water

 

sitting by the lake

reading

what was it we were reading   

 

do you remember the waiter's

look

of disdain   who knew a nose could be so long

 

but   rightly so   offending sensibilities

as we were

left and right   do you remember it 

 

as i do   as lovely   as enchanting   or   is it you

i am remembering

Beautiful!I am so full of curiosity at the imagery you have drawn and it sewems to me as if the whole city is enveloped in the mist of your remembering.

I enjoyed this poem, its seemingly casual accuracy, its open-hearted fidelity to a particular moment, to a particular person. A memorandum of what deserves to be remembered!
