Dominoes

"Dominoes"Sitting with the dogTrying to clear the fog of aMemory of the last timeThat i saw her face50 yrs of time an accidentWould take my mind and shortlyAfter take the wifeAway from meEverybody knowsMemories will keep us aliveAnd some just wont go away(just cant be erased)But if i remember one todayLet it be of GraceThe catskills are all frozenPlaying dominoes and i canHear a voice reminding meThat i'm her heroI can find myself able fromThe chair across the tableTo remember that it wasn'tAlways emptyEverybody knowsMemories will keep us aliveAnd some just wont go awayBut if there's a memory left of GraceLet it come back todayI see her beside meAs the grandkids they remind meThat she's in the cemeteryThat we played in as kidsThey just think i'm crazyBut the things she tells me latelyAre the only things that i cannot forget
