Dust and grime
Motorbikes and crime
Heartbreak and crumpled tissue
Big fights over trivial issues
blackboards and bangles
Shadows and candles
rainy days and paper boats
sand in my sandles
summers on the swing
mangoes aand the wind
brown eyes and cosy things
plectrums and guitar strings
long fingers, fidgety hands
royalty and ruby rings
mynahs and sorrow
mynahs and joy
robins on the wire
drongos magpies
dusty roads and kicky stones
basketball and sweat
fouls and heated rows
laughter and regret
chocolate and cofee
sticky smiles and toffee
equations to remember
conversations to forget
exams and mondays
maths, pencil scribble
early morning coffee crave
basketballs to dribble
back alleys and dingy lanes
garbage and the mangy cur
waggy tails and wet licks
fur on my sweater
clouds and crying skies
tears on my window pane
memories which matter
moments which remain.
