What I Wrote Years Ago... Poem by RIC BASTASA

What I Wrote Years Ago...



it is about superstition

a black butterfly
on a white flower

a stray cat hot on
the tin roof

an old dog following
the smell of a dead chicken
on the road

a lady vendor selling ripe
bananas singing for customers

a boy climbing for ripe
papayas gasping for breath

a girl with a basket of
red flowers roaming the
market

and there you are
walking in the park
with an broken heart
