I like matches best

I’m not one for kindles… old books smell too good.

I use lighters but I like matches best.

Post offices… post offices. Maybe it’s the stamps that get me.

I still use spiral notebooks.

Libraries, sometimes I go in just to walk

Up and down, up and down

the stacks.

G, C, E, D.. that’s all I seem to play.

Coffee and cream please,

Some days I like sugar.


Signs and wonders woo me... but times that brand me

Are the simple ones with you.

I flipping loved this, Meg. Wow, I didn't know you were such a poet. I want to Courtney to paint a picture with these words incorporated into it!

You never know about me, Erik. Haha, I know, Court's art is incredible! Maybe she will...
