A glorious thaw

I set for late spring

When all the trees

Breathe in

The air they left in the fall

When the leaves fell

So they can come back

In full summer bloom

Very very

Soon

Abaft

Are the memories

Of life on a boat

In the middle of the ocean

That is what I remember now

Through the waves

And slow going

It was just a bus ride

Or was it

Not

It ended in a wreck

A quick turn

Before the bus could yield

In the field of traffic

But it happened

So quick

A panic

Set in my bones

We were all together

But yet deftly alone

It happens in a split second

Not a moment wasted

As my life passed by me

And my eye were hastened on the

Emergency bar

Which broke my fall

In one moment

I could see them all

Lavish memories

Started about

10 years ago

A life lived so innocent

Protected

And far away

From the life that I know

Today
