Remember(An Acrostic Answer)
Did you think for a moment,
anxious prodigal would ever forget?
Do you regret, as I, hereditary stubbornness?
Inconsequentially,
My favorite childhood memory
Starched, bleached, hourglasses internal playmate,
Two unsung heros, far from home, adventure underway.
Indigo Comanche, flecked in dawns final burning breath.
Looking upon a pristine canvas, we’ll be the first to etch.
Listening to your legacy, innocent wonder reflects in my eyes.
Hanging enraptured, on your every word,like-
Eternally desperate boot tips brushing a single blade of grass.
Running, fear forgotten, Styrofoam steed faithfully in tow.
Exhilarated anticipation, Apaches saline mourning.
