Reminiscing.....

Reminisce

(poem written 6.7.06)

Michigan in the Fall

Red brown orange yellow

colors galore

crisp afternoon air

the smell of burning leaves

reminders of times spent with no worries at all

football games

sock hops

first crushes

and study hall

reminiscing of adolescent times when I couldn't even drive to the mall.

life changes

priorities rearranged

memories fade

bodies age

but specific moments in time remain imbedded in our minds...

to recall and relive the sublime.
