sad reminders of

what seems years ago

warm southern sun shines through

station wagon windows

like solar energy

and when in the night

your brother turned to me and said,

"god, do you look evil in the dark"



that made me feel good



sad reminders of

midwest winter snow

cold catholic church

heaven in stained glass windows

like rock candy

and when on sunday

their daughter turned at me and said,

"mom and dad, is it a boy or a girl"

"mom and dad, is it a he or a she"



that made me feel good
