The wide-,eyed gaze of childhood
innocence,lost by adolescence
optimism destroyed,by realities of life;
experience lined in majority's grin

Brilliancy of Autumn 
in leaves of amber rum 
a wood plank memory 
swings into our story 
I recall the essence   
of our adolescence

A schoolroom
of my childhood
my mother's heart

 My shy adolescence

Dazzling
Day-dreaming
Eyes
Entice

Finds recognition
Harmonized skies   
Romanticize
