I Remember

looking back when i was growing up
i can fondly remember the subtle breeze 
so fine and smooth
as a dandilion blowing underneath 
a weeping willow tree
i shall remember grasshoppers with one leg
i pleasantly smell the dampness 
of a butterflies cocoon under the porch
crab apples and then
it's spring again
