"Child"

Long years ago

old swings

and warm weather

sunsets on water

sand dollars

sea shells

racing down

the gully path

on my worn out

Tonka truck

poinsettia

by the garbage pit

blue water

clear sky

run down the hill

on warm, white

crushed gravel

AUTHOR'S NOTES
✫・゜・。.・。. ✭

I lived on Blue Mountain in the interior of Jamaica for 3 years as a kid. There's much I don't remember - just a handful of sensations and the echoes of stories retold. I tried to capture them here. As a result, this is one of my first good poems that I'm truly proud of -- more sensual and less conceptual than my earliest works.
