you used to love
with tumbling turquoise sea
satin gathered ruffles
wrapping the knee
the swooshing stance
of the venus faced willow tree
backyard pools
highschool poetry
crackiling sunsets
salt stained sea breezes
thumping dance floors
open skies and string bikinis
you used to love
with shakey scaffolding
glowing cable tv
boundary-less family
that piled like
home made jelly
you used to love. . .
