Love Poem: When I Was 15

When I Was 15

when I was 15
middle school student
wanted to read
there was a book
not to steal
Weekly magazines covered with wire mesh
differently that book
caught always my eye and heart
But in my life the book has become unnecessary
Almost 50 years passed like that
Tonight
I open the well-decorated book
Even though I was hungry,
I wanted to read that noble
I start reading like that time in my mind
"It was a blue sky that made me want to try swimming"
forgetting myself and the world
It is a dark night
blue skies begin to appear.
