A place to leave some memories, some thoughts and some plans about that which matters to me.
Why 'I Remember, I Remember'? This was the first poem apart from A. A. Milne's that caught my imagination. It is by Thomas Hood and is actually quite sad. As a child I only knew that I loved its rhythm. When reading it I felt like I was on a swing - something I loved - the words made me feel that I was a pendulum; swaying back and forth, back and forth and swinging joyously through the air. I loved the words too but they were a definite second in my experience of this poem.
The poem can be found here.
