5/14/20 As if it were yesterday I could still smell the dawn’s blue soap filling my just woke nostrils Seeing the sun shine spill through the over kitchen sink window And there the bubbles floated and popped in mid air It matched perfectly in this still moment And I could tell you that today would be a good day It was there my youth knew no boundaries I’ve known no pain but opportunities I grasped them from thin air and strung them together One word at a time One sentence after another With my heart beating out of excitement I smiled Moments like these made anything in this world possible I watched the weeping willow dance in the wind through that window My youth was not wasted Instead it was filled with wondrous wonders
