Mother of Memory – Mnemosyne Alzheimers, your antithesis, some God should love us. Even your daughters seemed to have forgotten that you gave them your gifts, through Zeus. Oh, he loved you, night after nine. Without you, who could have been recalled? At all? Without you. Mother, Memory, Mnemosyne. Mists love you, recollection is your forte. Against standard, you stood, Philosophizer, lover, mother, responsible for dialog. You, alone, gave reason to chronology. Life, Being, Self, Time, Space, Occurrence, Repetition… Beliefs. You manifested yourself into Thought. Unbeknown, you allowed Thought into Philosophy and did not stop there. Mother of Memory, you allowed Spiritualism. Possibly even the “can do” canto. Your daughters are proud, and wear your veils well. Without you no man could have been born to spout Intelligence. © Karilea Rilling Jungel January 3, 2007 |

Good Gwad, this was heartbreakingly beautiful... Even your daughters seemed to have forgotten that you gave them your gifts, through Zeus. Oh, he loved you, night after nine. to me, and for me, this is my favorite of yours...each and every line, compliments the next... one while reading, can sense, the great pain and investment, you've had in this...  |

... and to think my muse simply lives and writes without the aid of gods or godesses ... however, my muse does have a wonderful memory  . . . and NEVER was a river in Hades named after my muse . . . Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Dear Sissie "Without you, who could have been recalled? At all?" You have traveled a long way to bring forth these words. |
