A certain song that I used to know …
In a certain way, that it used to be sung,
I felt it play all over again, in my mind,
Why? Or, haven’t I had, left them all behind?
A song that I taught myself to sing …
I sang it day and night, sang it along,
With all those whom I knew, I felt,
Once, it take a life its own, and left me behind.
I feel taken, through the pastures all over again,
That I promised myself that I’d not return,
Ever to … but, I think, return I should.
The why is a thing, I’d have to make as I go…
So, I’m inching, speeding and inching again,
With a fistful of fragmented afterthoughts,
That I’d kept away. This morning, as I opened
Up the table-drawers , a yellow breeze did flow in …
From somewhere, I hope not, that it was from within.
Dedication: For Sindy, …if this’d lift her spirits .
