A Page From My Childhood
Will turn back the pages of my life to a day,
where I am walking slowly with father;
and a dog barks,
and a bird sings.
We traverse a nearby woods exploring nature,
looking at rocks and find a bird feather;
later, we walk up steep steps of a church,
with an interior beautiful still and quiet.
Why do things change ?
Why, do Dad's die ?
And then I walked,
and explored alone !
