The Younger Years

Childhood . . . most often, I'm so glad it's behind me.


 


An adult's childhood memory


Is like a beautiful, but scarred, milk glass picture.


Covered with creamy tissue it's secured under reflection.


The prettiness offers a surrealistic feel of completion,


Even though it can no longer be touched.
