Poem -
~ On Being A Boy ~
Slow sleeping,
My daydreams ease,
So perfectly as I breathe in,
Memories of being a boy....
My grandmother's handย ย
Slides through my fingers
As my childhood lingers
On sweet smells of morning's bacon
With blueberry pancakes
And remembrances making
Smiles through effervescent thickness
Bringing me such pleasure
With memories thickets
As my youth (in all of its whimsy)
Paints expressions on my face in the mirror
Which never ever lies
But so reverently malingers
In the catacombs of my beliefs
As I glide in
On the happy notion
That I am alive
And not in some imagined sepulcher
But still dancing in my solitude
And still smiling
At the miracles
Of my youth....
