Special  Moments

In a room

Small dark and warm

Beady drops of sweat

And we don’t notice at all

Pink chicken feathers

wrapped around our necks

Silver heels and badly polished toes

Hair unkempt,  swept

Playmates and blood running

through our veins

From the same stock

Sharing the same name

Special little moments are these

You and I in an attic with toys

Tears of laughter

Tears of joy

Sharing things of devotion

to the heart

The best of reasons

To never be apart

Never saw the need too grow up

Become apart of a world

With fast cars and credit cards

Instead of women, remaining girls

These are the times

When the air is cool against young faces

Special times and precious moments

Transcending time and space

~this is probably one of my faves. This piece is about me and a cousin of mine. we grew up together and we’ve had our share of fights, but we’ve had more great times than not. Special Moments captures a hot sunny texas attic with what, for us as children seemed to be filled with treasures. lol we lost touch with each other and as the years between us stretched for miles and miles like lonely texas highways, we went on with our lives. funny enough, she and i happen to be in similar career fields. i found her on myspace last year. i was happy to have her back in my life. this time, i don’t plan to let go~
