Do You Remember?A Poem by RuzicaDo you remember that day?
That day when ice-cream dripped down our fingers and we were so happy Weren't we? The day our eyes closed from the force of our smiles and our fingertips tingled and tickled our feather-wings It was the longest summer - the hottest in living memory they say But to us the heat only meant the days were ours to drink - endless hours in the grass We lounged by the lazy river and you played with the brim of my big white hat and you smiled with the whole of your body Do you remember that? It's winter now and I'm wearing my navy coat with brass buttons - like a soldier's and my steps echo along your scenic street I don't even turn my head when I pass by your white picket fence © 2014 Ruzica |
