Been missing you of late . . .
you know, that young woman
you used to be!
That young college student, so
young she participated in a bra
burning march against the Viet
Nam war . . . caught, fined . . .
That incredibly young wife who
would have done anything and
everything to make things work.
So full of hope and expectations!
That young mother who would
have died for her children at any
given moment, but so ignorant
of all that was required . . .
That young teacher, so full of hope,
longing to save lives in the face
of each and every student to cross
her path . . .
And now, this olde woman, so
full of dreams and memories of
yesteryear; how will she survive?
Who is she? Who has she become?
I do hope to get to know her . . .
to know this olde moi. I pray I am
not disappointed . . .
"I have traveled through
madness to find me."
