The Christmas Fire
A shimmer of a memory, distant
as recalled by someone else, yet
vaguely remembered every late
December.
Finding a key under the carpet
in a smoke filled room, standing
on a stool to reach its keyhole,
cool night air and a warm blanket.
A log cabin burning to the ground,
who lit the fire? When growing up
no one mentioned the accident. What
accident? You are dreaming lad.
Am I the only one that remember
a dark secret that, in the ashes of
time, is forgotten but for me who
was too young to understand?

Hmmm..... spooky. I have some memories like that too... you are so sure that they are real, that they weren't just dreams, but everyone around you swears it never happened... great write!
