revisiting where i grew up,
i walk along a starry beach:
the gulf is gentle, welcoming,
the moon seems within reach --
but childhood is not, i fear.
so often, we remember
the way things felt, not how they were.
and so, this is blue december
i will recall the world that was,
and note, respectfully
that those times were not simple, just
made simple, then
for me
