I miss the small town girls, whose names I have mostly forgotten, the games of tag, the make believe scenarios, the fun we had. I miss the star lit chats that the adults had, while I ran with flint rock sparks, and chased fireflies. I miss the old campground, where we would swim in a small sandy pond, splashing. When the older folks dipped in they got bitten, but I never felt any fish nibbling. These memories have been dimming over time, plus distance as I swim in a different world, but I was younger then playing with other children, innocent. I miss those moments.
