There are slices of time that each of us savor.
each of a different flavor lasting
but a moment on the tongue
forever in our memory.
Curved paths under the oaks
and through the brush,
sets off the flavor that I treasure.
With that taste on my tongue,
brings me back,
to a moment
when everything seemed so big
There we were, in our wild land
playing a game of hide-n-seek,
and she knew how to hide…
but, not from me.
There she was, sitting on her wooden throne
laying there, like the forest knew she was a princess.
I just a knight in shining armor,
always to look up at her with respect
to keep her safe was my charge,
to have her as mine was my desire.
