Banyan tree

Slight twinge in the ribs reminds me of the afternoon many years ago

When I lay down in the grass waiting for the rainbow

Sparkle in the eyes and spring in the knees

Waiting to jump ahead and run.


As the dry page flutters at the turn of the decade

The banyan tree doesn't have the same shade any more.

what we write is our own experience. either before it or during it and better, if the experience is after it.
