How Marvellous Indeed

How marvellous indeed the gift of memory It takes us back in time to the what used to be It is all that we have to remember the past And the clocks on our lives ever keep ticking fast We live in the now and the future is ahead But sadly those who lost their gift of memory are of the living dead To live a quality life a good memory you do need Without it you are a poor person indeed Though a multi millionaire he does not recognize his wife He now lives a silent and a miserable life Bereft ofthought in his locked room he sits on his chair Even for the materially wealthy life can be unfair How marvellous indeed the great gift of memory For those who lose it how very sad life can be.
