It was rather beautiful day.
She asked me to hold her kite, while she
Went to get more string,
And I stood as the sun carried me as high
As the lightweight toy of color,
Into the rays and their remarkable space.
She returned with her string and her smile,
And I thought nothing could be better
The breeze and memory I was about to possess,
Better than Proust in his closed off room
Or Emily struggling to recreate Amherst.
Sure, it could be art, or love in the city-owned grass.
This is a lovely reminiscence, Tony. Perfect moments are so few, but they leave a lasting trace, don't they? You've re-created (or created, as the case may be) the feeling nicely, I think.

I would like to translate this poem
And, I only THOUGHT I had read bad poetry before this poem! HA! New levels have been set, going down, down, down....bye, bye.
