old bottles
wishes
tea cups
and
words
creamers
marbles
and
thoughts
afternoon winter skies
atlas jars
small aquamarine on a silver chain
a plastic bottlecap in the woods
and the memory of your tender blue eyes
tea with friends
thoughts of miro
sunny afternoons
colored pencils tied with twine
book sale at the library
shards of distant memories
kisses from the pup
this book: The Alienist by Caleb Carr and
this movie: Loving Vincent
the sound of a page turning
ceramic creamers
silver glitter
coffee on a cold morning
ice in a glass
handwritten letters in the mail
snow in january and in february
beads and bangles
green on a grey winter day
the space between night and morning
these words: zephyr, qi & jezebel
bottles in wooden bowls
toy trunks and 50’s cowboys
small coffee creamers in a line
old shelves freshly painted
corbels with chipping paint
white buttons in glass containers
riding bikes with banana seats covered in cereal box stickers
dolls with growing hair
riding in the back of truck beds
barking dogs chasing cars
clove cigarettes
pool tables and pin ball games in basements
1970 Ford Torino
fireworks in fields
bus rides to town and hot dogs for lunch
mercury glass and mirrors,
puddles of water, windows,
books, movies and songs,
ice chips and diamonds,
silver spoons, steady minds,
sometimes children and sometimes parents
cars from the 1930’s and 40’s
bottles filled with buttons
objects found in abandoned buildings
jelly jars as glasses
lockets with locks of hair
stamps on yellowed envelopes
chipped pitchers holding fragrant lilacs
photos in cigar boxes
rolodex rotary files
steamer trunks with hand lettering
thick, tall maples
bibles with scribbled family trees
barns on the pennsylvania countryside
nostalgia
