Your poem powerfully evokes the feel, smell, touch and feel of that summer. I know where you are standing, can see the scene in my mind's eye like it was yesterday. LOVE this poem so much and the musings in your post that preceded it. Lindsay, your skill at using words to transport us in time and place is magical.

Beautifully done. So many memories of that time between childhood and later. Things just keep on changing. All we can do is go with the flow and be thankful for what we have. Hugs and best wishes dear Lindsay.

It's such an interesting period of life to traverse. One of beautiful reflections like yours and of reimagining...and of much lower food bills 🤭🤣
