IN A SPRING OF A MOMENT

Folder: 
JOURNAL#26

harness the moment

brass spangles

glittering high above this porch

of thought

sweet refuge

a swing

the one Grandpa built for Mama

when she was still just a wee girl

smiling in her pig tailed happiness

of childhood

up at the man who meant more to her than

open sky to a bird

she still remembers that swing

when she speaks of blue bonnets and cowbells

all gentle reminders

of her fond days

during the great depression............
