My memories do not fall in ordered lines; Nor do they follow any fixed or set design. But rather form a patchwork hour by hour Of all the scraps of life that have been mine. A crimson tracery on a dull, grey cloth, The gay unconscious laughter of a child at play, A chance remark that somehow brought me joy, A golden moment in a gloomy day — Each patch has its own place, however slight. Some stand in high relief, and some in shadow fall. While here and there is found a darker piece To give a depth and richness to it all. Those colors which are bright and garish now. Because of newness, will be softened by the years. Some day 1 shall remember with a smile That once this piece held laughter, that one tears. Virginia R. Gilliam :1
