Today, January 7th, our prompt is Indelible from Ruth at Image and Word.
First thing that comes to mind is that stubborn stuff kids tend to find to scrawl their artwork over your best tablecloth or the wallpaper.
I also remember strict instructions from the teaching staff at grammar school that our names were to be printed on knickers and other items of clothing with an indelible marker. As if I could forget my name, I ask you!
Then again, you could have a particular indelible memory, one that is yours alone or one you may wish to share.
Images dance before me,
Never ceasing in my mind,
Dreaming or fully conscious
Embracing all that is good and kind.
Loving each tender moment
Impossible to remove from my memory,
Blazing with hope and passion
Living together, side by side
Encaptured in the forever of my soul.

When my dad was in the nursing home his name was on all his clothing but it didn’t stop the delivery ladies from sending his clothes to the other “Tom” in the home, the other “Tom” was about three sizes smaller than my dad. So no joy there.
