I would never be game enough to attempt a ‘Golden Shovel’ format Lucy, for fear I wouldn’t do the original Author’s lines justice…..but you’ve bravely strode into your poem with gusto and vivid imagery….. wow well done Lucy

The post I share was written on Memorial Day two years ago. It is one of the rare personal essays on my blog and begins with me telling about what I would be doing if I were back home. Well I happen to be back home this year but things are not as I remembered. Things will never be the same.
