Not then and Not now

A familiar

Roadway suggesting

Stories associated

With a past

And a boyhood

Character in what

Seems happening

Not then and 

Not now...

Dear Charles, the imagery of the "roadway" is evocative. I enjoyed the nostalgic nature of your verse. A beautiful reflective piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

I guess I ask, then when? I like this poem. I get a feeling of mystery in the words.
