Standing in the sunlight entranced with the shiny silver dollar in my hand
Standing with my mother watching a small funnel cloud lower to the ground a mile east
Pretending to be Monkees in the playground at school during recess
Walking to high school singing Another Day with gray clouds hanging low
Discovering differences in humidity impacts on cookies while riding across Texas
Crying in a cemetery as they lower a tiny styrofoam container into the ground
Walking along tilting slippery pavement stones in the rain to catch the street car
Watching sea turtles come in and lay eggs in the sand in the dark and cover them over
Spending hours being made up and hair done to look like a movie star for one beautiful photo
Wearing an emerald green flowing dress with daisies in my hair marrying the right man
Clambering up the Spurgeon Wall in the green southern Indiana heat following flour trails
Invisible before my husband in a park surrounded by saguaro wearing a pink running dress
Eating kangaroo spaghetti in the apartment after visiting the red rocks of Uluru and The Olgas
Sleeping in the nose of a Dolphin and playing on the California coast
Eating dates in a camp chair working on getting energy to climb the next New Mexico hill
Camping with a kidney stone in a driveway in Arizona while he is in the inner-Andean basin
Laying here today in bed writing these memories before I begin my daily puzzle solving job
