PB&J (Day 732)

That was a peanut-butter-and-jelly sort of day: 

Sweet, salty center, a bit tired toward the end,

Gently satisfying, in a nostalgic way,

Comforting as coffee with a trustworthy friend.

Try to imagine (Day 729)

Try to imagine 

   how it felt at the time  

quiet  complicated afternoons 

   sidling up to the jukebox 

playing Journey and painting 

panoramic pictures of the bay   

nibbling on Twix  curiosity 

   and imagination   carefree  

empty hands slippery with clay  

relationships rigid with freedom

instinctive  obssessive  wild 

like a hundred little campfires 

   on broad damp beaches
