Poetry Friday: Book of Memories

It's my third Poetry Friday and third original poem in a row. This one is about my thoughts as I wrote my holiday cards this year. The Poetry Friday round-up is at AmoXcalli.

Book of Memories
Memories unfold
as I flip through the pages
of the well-worn book.

Since the last time
I looked there have been
deaths
divorces
new babies
new houses
new marriages.

I see each one vividly
as I turn the pages.

Usually I need a photo album
to conjure the images.

Tonight,
all it takes is my
address book.
