The universe must be a teenage girl. So much darkness, so many stars.

Remember rocks

you used to climb

the year that you were seven?

The earth and fields were nothing then

and every tree was heaven.

 

Remember birds

divided the moon

too murky for their flight?

Or the universe about your room

in swaths of golden light.

This is a nostalgic sort of nursery rhyme. I don't usually write rhyming poetry.
