a quick trip to the city. remembering the lights and the sun -

 
  
 
a few quick days in nyc.

coming in is always like coming home,
i feel like i am small again, that my mother is near, that my grandparents are setting up the tree at gracie terrace, that i can run through the sprinklers at carl schultz park.

that i am small again.

this few days was full of things. 
finishing things.  starting things.
and things like sun on my face, heavy and hot,
crossing canal street,
again:

and flowers from friends,
who always seem to remember:


looking back on this time,
rememberance,
of others, and myself,
will be important.
