Mostly fiction mixed with a little poetry and a smidgen of real life drama
A loving place where I did once dwell
But will never be allowed to return
You are the spring that feeds the stories I tell
The keeper of the things that I have learned
Each step I take is filled with memories
From a life that I once knew
Every smell from flower and tree
Pulls my thoughts back to you
There in those backyards of my memories
I recall my pledge from so long ago
That I will remain open and free
And cling to youth and never let go
Nothing is impossible (at least that does not violate the laws of physics). When you can..violate the laws of physics!

I believe it is. One of my brothers had an Edsel when I was growing up and the other had a 57 Chevy. Of course, with 15 of us children, there were a lot of cars… and a lot of stories.

I probably spend way too much of my time running around those backyards of my youth.

Funny, I spent my youth trying to get away from my tiny little town and now that it’s gone, it’s the one place I want to be.
