Maiden Memory Poem by Daniel Brick
Maiden Memory
I've got a short memory. We call it Maiden Memory
in Russian.
Liza Sudina
Maiden Memory,
you are ever fresh and beauteous!
Nothing that emerges from you
is stale or spoiled. With you,
it is always TODAY, no trace of
yesterdays, always a clean slate
on which only the purest people
dare inscribe their names.
Maiden Memory,
I watch you on winter days
wandering down corridors of ice,
past snow mountains and valleys,
looking for some place of warmth
which eludes you. But not for long.
Already, the birds who are harbingers
of spring have returned to find you.
Let us go together to greet them.
Take me by the hand, and show me
step by step how you leap over
people and objects in one graceful
motion of release. Let me cherish
this memory until the lesson of freedom
is fully mine. Then I will release you,
like Prospero's Ariel, into your liberty.
This poem is really beautifully presented poem. A short memory is in view. We call it Maiden Memory. Every scenery observed remains in memory. Cherishing memory until the lesson of freedom is understood is wise. Very thoughtful poem is shared.10

Lovely piece! Do you agree there is a difference between maiden memory and poor memory?))) The former is careless and the latter is worrisome)
