Summer of Memory

Traveling back to a place of memory. Familiar smells, city sounds. San Francisco with open arms of the bay. Chinatown, North Beach, crowded sidewalks. I sit in silence in front of Old Saint Mary’s. Here time contracts and I am twelve again, unafraid of the wonder of the world. I tell this young version of myself, Keep vigil dear youngster and hold the awe in your heart.
