I have a memory
one perfect one
where time stood still
for hours at a time
where the sun shone
even on cloudy days...
just me, my voice,
with the piano
in my grandma's
sun parlor
and the old, old sheet music
and picking out the notes
and playing with my *******
...just *******
and singing the songs
....with my one voice
and I was lost in dreamland songs, and hymns, and dixie and stephen foster....
and if ever i had a happy memory
...where nothing hurt
...and i was loved
...and safe
it was there.....
