Driveway Memories
DRIVEWAY MEMORIES
The steep driveway with my three kids
Outshines all the places I’ve been. People I’ve known.
Successes I’ve had: they are nothing. All the achieving:
Absolutely nothing. Compared with the memory of those three - now grown -
Running down the driveway when I come home in the evening.
My main purpose and achievement in life
Three running down the driveway
Flinging six arms round my neck as I pull in
Running down faster and faster
Till at the bottom it is a steep drop off
And childhood disappears so fast.
