I love the work of Norman Rockwell!
It recalls to mind memories,

Norman Rockwell
Rockwellesque



brilliant man with nostalgia values

with dreams viewed of a perfect life 

depicting amusing scenes

with sense of humor, shown

with heartwarming bonds

memories fade

In a fog of my conscious mind

Atop my home space, high and round?

bright white toothed smile

short skirt legs running long

Life's taken a turn,
The war is won.

The kindly old lamplighter ambled about the village green,
Lighting lamps to add a glow to that Norman Rockwell scene!
Sitting on a bench in the shadows...
