isn’t it funny
how a sound
or a piece of music
or a smell
or a taste
can instantly transport you
to a different time?
today on my way to work
I stopped for gas
in the old woman mobile
and while paying
purchased a package
of Trident Tropical Fruit gum
the combination of smell
and taste
instantly transports me
to my summer holidays
the sun
the rain
the friends
the good old days….
