Memorial

State Route 208 west of New Wilmington, PA.


Two late dreams

Of a favorite aunt

Who lived in a dreamscape:


A bunch of us girls,

In short skirts,

Running through fields;


Children on tricycles

Without destination,

Just passing through.


At the end of each dream

She awoke laughing,

Joy at her core.



–For Aileen Cheers Sewall, 1922 - 2013.
