when i was little,
we would chew
penny gum balls,
colorful as turmeric,
and imagine spiced
potpourri dreams in
passing clouds; do you
see a lazy lizard? yes, it
wears old leather boots
and rides a sea serpent!
Linking to Linda’s paint chip poetry on “when i was little” theme!

Root beer hard candy barrels purchased from the peddler that would stop at our house in the country. And it is still fun to look at the cloud shapes and let ones imagination have free rein. I saw a tyrannosaurus rex just last week!

My husband still buys root beer barrels at the local Bomgaars store. A T-rex…cool!
