dVerse: Two Two Four Four

dVerse: Numerology



2244 came into my life
when i chose it as the last 4 digits
to my cellphone...my car phone 
at the time
the salesperson was a friend
and let me choose from a page
because i wanted a number
easy to remember

it was almost two decades
before my amnesia came undone
and learned 2244 
was a part of me
a guiding number
a number that told me
when i was on the right path

it didn't matter in what form
22 or 44. 224 or 442 or 242
the numbers were my synchronicity
44 became 44N at one point
in Italy in 2005 we took a side trip
to Cinque Terre
because of a breathtaking view
we found online
not until after the trip was booked
did i get an internal "push"
Cinque Terre was 44 degrees N
initially afraid to go
i found huge healing during that trip

last year was france
husband chose Avignon
i said "okay"
accidentally found Avignon was 44N
disbelief
italy couldn't be parallel with france
but those two cities were
another healing experience
most extraordinary
a time of synchronicity

2+2+4+4 = 3
i used to do that all the time
with numbers that came through
my amnesia
perhaps one time the number
had a different meaning
but was transformed before
i remembered
it's me
it's my number
grace2244


Not exactly poetry or prose...but my stream of consciousness on this prompt.

    1. Probably more than others want to know, Laurie. But it stopped the life I had and I just really overcame 99.9% of all that manifested very recently. Had to throw a number in there :)

    1. Brian and I married on 7/22. His birthday is 10/22 which I could never remember. Brain kept thinking 10/1 or 10/10. He also knew I would always remember our anniversary and his birthday if we chose that date :) Hubby is smart ♥

  8. It's funny how a number can start to become entrenched in your life... number 8 used to be mine...seemed I was always living in houses no 8 in the street. Fascinating poem.

  11. ...now that is really something... special in some way or another... i always wonder how it feels like to have amnesia... how it feels like to be in a big world of blankness where everyday you seem to forget...smiles...
