Promontory

The smell of woodchips on a hot day
Sliver ground where these feet used to play

A kind lady with a place in my heart
Tight hugs in the place I loved art

Wildwood was my childhood on a carpet by a chair
Nonfiction made me live in the bookstained air

Fantasy and fiction piled far too high to reach
Thickening a mystery of shelves I cannot breach

This was where I spent my days, the ones I can remember
Shy and quiet every hour, august to december

Maybe I was sad these days, alone in my endeavor
But these melodies are memories, those memories a treasure
