His lanky frame
slouched down on
the sofa as he
talked with
a comfort level
unusual for a
thirteen year old
Long eye lashes
blinked his words
to explain where
he was headed
in life and
mistakes made
Not wanting to
reveal too much
he stopped mid sentence
to protect awkward
feelings and sense
of place in his world
A treasure of time
for both young and old
on a planet
ever changing
as meteors
dropped from an
August sky
