between the dusty yellow pages
of a once-bestseller
I dried a memory
try hard as you might
you would not rush back through time
vivid memories flowing like the Niagara falls
as you held my dried and long dead Sunday daisy
we could have gone to the lake
remember the choices of youth?
we could have stayed in all day
playing dress-up with sheets and blankets
the trail by your father's ranch
it still leads to a field full of flowers
a different field
now that
Sunday daisies are gone
