Milestones and Pearls

Today was a milestone: something truly amazing!

I jogged…really jogged!

The cats were agog

To witness the feat of my feet flying

An ability lost to me for nearly 12 years!

I’ve dreamt of it lately

But was too scared to try it.

Now I have done it!

My heart’s of good cheer!

Today was a movie

Scenes scattered at random

With little connection…

Just like real life.

‘Til we make it a story,

Putting pearls on a necklace,

Stringing one after another

Like Arabian Nights.

Scheherazade spun tales to save her life.

Is that what we all do?

Spin discrete moments into yarn to knit our lives together?

And so remember?
