Sometimes

Sometimes

a stroll into the past

Might bring illumination

A realization

Something new

Something missed

An epiphany

Then understanding

Coupled

With frustration

Irritation

Indignation

And a wish

A desire

An ignorant belief

That YOU

YOU

Might have changed

Your history

Silly you

You were but a child.

Blue Eyed Boy Gone Too Soon

Your beautiful boy

Still lives in my head.

Running free

Across the blacktop.

Easy going

Towheaded

Sharp eyed

Quick smile.

Though

You keep watch

Over all of his years

I tend his fifth.
