I Cherish Days And Years I Sit: Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver

Having my say on the
Twenty -first day of May, in year
twenty thirteen while
being showered
with May flowers
gleaning purple petals while
sitting on my bottom
wide is my heart
love flows softly
skinny dipping,
and swimming free
Though, I still sit
as fresh orchid
and withering
in its prime, yet
holding onto
sweet and sour memories
all upon which I sit
thoughts thrusting through sweet channel,
stimulating bitter pains of childhood lost.
Boxes of cookies cherished, and
Him believing such action redeems
and dirty deeds soothe
all times before and present….yet
all these things on which I sit
trying to Separate all this shit!
