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

And there the bubbles floated and popped in mid air

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
