There was a sense of wonder as I wandered through my childhood, gazing up, knowing the trees never ended. There is tranquility where none previously existed. There was disappointment when the fence was discovered. There was a splendid sense of bliss hidden in the clouds among the alligators and elephants. There were smiles there. There was patience there. There was poetry. There were smiles. There was music. There were phone calls that lasted upwards of an hour. There were times the phone never rang. There was a need for change that burned so deep, if not sated would choke its way out. There was self-creation, cut and carved out of the mold. There were few words spoken and the ones that were usually wished they could take the first plane out of town. There was coffee. There is coffee.

There was a sense of wonder as I wandered through my childhood, gazing up, knowing the trees never ended. There is tranquility where none previously existed. There was disappointment when the fence was discovered. There was a splendid sense of bliss hidden in the clouds among the alligators and elephants. There were smiles there. There was patience there. There was poetry. There were smiles. There was music. There were phone calls that lasted upwards of an hour. There were times the phone never rang. There was a need for change that burned so deep, if not sated would choke its way out. There was self-creation, cut and carved out of the mold. There were few words spoken and the ones that were usually wished they could take the first plane out of town. There was coffee. There is coffee.
