Writers are forgetful,

But they remember everything.

They forget appointments and anniversaries,

But remember what you wore,

How you smelled on your first date.

They remember every story you told them -

Like ever,

But forget what you've just said.

They don't remember to water the plants

Or take out the trash,

But they don't forget to make you laugh.

Writers are forgetful

Because they are busy

remembering

The important things

He told me he knew exactly when winter was truly over

- not by birds returning or grass greening,

but by the scents that build the air.
