Telling your baby something she won't remember
I remember candles in the garden that August

I remember you sitting on my knee.

I remember whispering

about your mother

about me.

Your attention was taken by the candles

And I remember remembering that you were not yet three

I think I remember telling you how quickly dreams can change

how the world can be

I remember candles in the garden that August
