Nostalgia Poem by jackilton peachum
Nostalgia
(For Darren at Locorum)
No, no, we don't want youth— to be young again—
what we really want is our life back!
The one we had before the present ripped us off!
We want the remembered smell of a certain red rose
— an energy that fed us when we were sixteen—
the sound of a mother's voice remanding us!
And the sweethot taste of a kiss stolen
long ago on a warm summer's evening—
yes, yes, we want that!
