Panama Jack

 Barefoot in the blades

The green

Tickles toes

And I relish

The sensation

Of sunshine

Warming extremities

As I recall days

Of beach days

The scents of 

Panama Jack

And lemon juice

Being my hair’s

Natural highlighter

Followed by a shower

Aloe coating skin

And olive oil

As my conditioner

These days

I take a whiff

Of sunscreen

To see

If it brings

Me back

To a time

I wish

I had savored

  2. Sounds like some sweet memories...but yes, every day is a new gift and we should make whatever happy memories we can each day, while still savoring the old ones. Have a blessed and wonderful day.

  7. Ah, hindsight is 20/20, isn't it? The best thing we can do for ourselves is to learn to cherish each moment, and be present as much as we can. Have a wonderful weekend!

  11. Hindsight brings back many memories to savor but also the realization of things we missed.
