summer in your house
the morning light poured in
spilling on the chenille
like warm milk
dishes clattering in the kitchen
as you made breakfast

no worries
I think about those days of barefeet, scraped knees, sunburns, mosquito bites and garden dirt…
release
she strained to hold on to the good parts
when the not-so-good parts were hard to shake off
july
there were those hot sticky nights
picnics by flashlight on the dewey grass
waiting for the fireworks
we chased fireflies
in her house
“Vague memories hang about the mind like cobwebs”
