Coffee cups, glasses, mugs
sit everywhere
and hold
myriad of things
change, pencils, crayons, jewelry,
hooks, needles and pins
you see the things
you see the cups
how can you not see
the memories
that cling to every surface
where they came from
tastes they held
the day they were bought
hearts that chose each
with thoughts and love
treasured beyond the cost
a glance
simple touch
each in turn
brings a smile
the memories that stick
to ordinary things
always in my mind

“the memories that stick
to ordinary things”
— YES. Love this.
I’m like you. How can I bare to throw away anything, as each thing reminds me of a place, a person, a moment…
(and no, I’m not *totally* a hoarder!)
Some memories cannot be forgotten, great write.
