my computer says ponderings is not a word...

whenever my computer gets tired and goes to the screen saver,
i get to view a random succession of pictures.
my life from the past few years
not in the order that i lived it.
memories.
things, places, ideas, people.
-some i haven't thought about in awhile.
-some i was contemplating mere seconds before their appearance on the screen.
i always let the pictures pass.
remembering.
nostalgic ponderings.

the slide show always ends too soon
and i am left staring at a reflection of myself
in the present
exactly as i am
wishing for something else.

exhale
drink a sip of tea
and return from my journey
of what was my life.
