A Memory

I have a memory
of being little
too short
to reach the Dixie cups
that were pulled from a dispenser
that hung on the cupboard
over the counter
by the sink
in the kitchen
of that house on the farm
and the reason
I remember
is that one day I discovered
I was able to reach up
and pull one down
all by myself

  1. And now you reach up and find you have a whole farm in your hands – the miracles have grown!
