Here is a poem from the book:
SOMEWHERE IN THE BACK OF MY MIND
02/02/95
I pulled out old pictures
Gazed at your face; memory
Took me back, to those nights
You saved your smile for me.
When I whispered your name,
You stepped to the front
Of my heart, from somewhere
In the back of my mind.
Strawberry, long blonde hair, near,
Green eyes, playful with passion,
Light rose lips, sultry, in faint light,
First love’s blush on your face,
Yes, I still recall those
Tender moments, cradled
In yesterday’s hands, loosely
Wrapped in pink cashmere.
