For not being poet by nature you certainly paint a vivid imagery.

I'm trying. 

Thanks weinerdog!

Probably not too often, but I'm sure there is some more prose in my noggin that will get written down. Thanks for opening my eyes.

Wonderful 

I enjoyed reading these. Weary parents hide evidence of deceit made me smile and remember my own mom and dad. Thanks for helping me touch those memories again.

I was one of those weary parents for many years... good memories. Thanks for reading!

So descriptive and the imagery that the words painted were so impactful.  Brought up some really nice memories of the past for me.  

This poem seems to be nostalgia-kissed. It had me running in the halls of my elementary school again, seeing the seasonal decorations taped on the walls, perceiving the floor wax, and feeling -- more like scenting -- the heat of my fellow school kids' bodies after we came in again from lunchtime play. Thanks for evoking this in me

Yeah.. my memories pulled out some good imaged for this. Thanks for reading!

Some fantastic imagery throughout this wonderful journey. Made me remember things... and feel them. Once again, well done, kbois. Cheers! I would say you are, without a doubt, a poet.  

'Into the Past' and someone in my head said 'and Back Again'.

Anyway, for not being a poet this was very poetic. I'm glad you dipped your toe into the poet lake.

Brilliant!  I believe you took us all on a trip looking back at our past.   I loved your descriptions as you went through the various seasons and the images you evoked were ones that many of us could identify with.  It left me feel a bit nostalgic after I finished reading your poem.  Thank you for sharing this wonderful verse
