Once, when I was barely three I climbed up the tallest tree. My Gramma was scolding me, and yet, I didn't care. A crude diaper parachute left me in my birthday suit. And I must've looked so cute that folks stopped to stare. I recall drifting for miles, soliciting ahhs and smiles. My butt was on the X-files, floating in the air. Nearing my destination at the local train station. I felt some hesitation about landing there. So, catching a breeze back home; I felt as light as sea foam. It seems a weird way to roam; yet it's true; I swear!
