June 22

Hidden away in a tent lost in time

Where there were games to play and trees to climb

I remember the leap, surely the branch was too far

The dew under the sleeping bag, oh look a shooting star!

The scorching skin as I hopped along the sand

The juiciness of a plum, the brush of a hand

The scents and sounds of a childhood in my head

Nothing compares to mum's homemade bread
