Expanding Into Remembering Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Expanding Into Remembering



Living through a hurricane when I was just nine years old,
still stays with me in memory's untold.

When even younger, I remember the air raids we had in our
town of Bound Brook.

We had to pull down all the shades and get down on the floor
of the bathroom.

In grade school, we'd have to leave our classroom and go out
into the hallways, head in our arms, leaning against the
wall until the all clear bell rang.

It's strange how memories are always with me, just thinking
brings them to mind and they open up and expand into
remembering.
