Nostalgic Encounter

Today I bumped into my Childhood
and it did not recognize me.
I said: "Hi! Do you live close by?"
It answered mutely with frightened eyes...
Reality was pulling it away from me
I had Childhood in my palms today
but once again it cried snowflakes
of tears of Christmas long time gone...
