All the things.




Crumpled on frosty clover
A torn grocery list

and tulips.

I love finding other peoples discarded note fragments and lists. I think we all might be better off with fewer electronics and more notepads & pencils.

This reminds me of the “This is Just to Say” poem by William Carlos Williams, viz.:

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

When it comes to remembering things, I am most definitely an analogue gal. The process of writing stuff down seems to help it cement in my memory. I’m sure there are studies about committing pen to paper enhancing memory retention.
