It took the walls away
into nostalgia and memory
recalling the many phases
of our lives.
Parents, grandparents,
aunts and uncles
long vanished into the ether
came alive once more;
school days of teachers and games
with school yard friends and foes.
They echo all around adding
a light patina of richness
to these walls and I am grateful.
“Patina is the value that age puts on an object.”
~ John Yemma, journalist and editor
