I remember (Pastiche of a text by George Perec)
I remember.
I remember the smell of cut grass.
I remember the taste of raspberry tarts cousin Lulu.
I remember long walks in the forests of pines and the wind singing in the branches.
I remember the horrible pictures of Uncle Albert, he had to accept with a happy smile!
I remember the fantasy and joy of the mother's brother, who disappeared one day without leaving a forwarding address, and never recovered.
I remember the lullabies I sang my mother.
I remember the beauty of a sunset over the Bosphorus.
I also remember my frustrated hopes and my ambitions thwarted.
alas I remember all the missed opportunities ...
I remember the first day I finally said no!
