Gretel's Reminiscence



once there were clouds like flowers.
people held onto their hearts
with kite strings.

when they went floating up-
they held festivals for hours-
spooning out the thick cream

of afternoons

we walked among them,
penny-splendid,
breaking off sugar-candy;
above us,

continents of roses-
