To Catch and to Keep


Mind: beware–

For they are hard to catch like air.

You must take care -

For they easily tear.

You can catch a memory anywhere,

Everywhere.

A pair

Of pears,

Unusual hair -

look at that silverware!

While sitting in an armchair,

Or flying through the air.

Perhaps look elsewhere;

Places fallen into disrepair,

Places that are quite threadbare

full of people looking to ensnare

Those who are in despair.

Look there,

If you dare.

But for me, I'll find memories there,

Where'er

I can love and care,

and my friends say we'll pay your fare

But please do take care -

we couldn't bear

You being mauled by a bear.

We'll being waiting for you at O'hare!

You really are a person rare.
