Recordar

Counting the days in the summer remaining,

counting the summers as years,

recordar the Spanish "to remember"

from the Latin cor for "heart,"

ah, yes, "to pass once more through the heart,"

I found what I had written then

of one whose heart I passed through,

as they still pass through mine, those few,

that one, that other one,

this one, too.
