Read Like You Did When You Were A Child

read like you did when you were a child
with sunset bookmarks
thirsty after awhile

for lemonade or lime.
go back to the picture every time
to the green chair in the rose garden

and rest your chin on the windowsill
of way back then
read read freely without clocks.

read and carry the tune within
or carry the one of let's begin
and begin again.

read for the colours for the pink roof's slope
read for the music without a note.
read for the heart's enchantment then

switch off the light
and dream it again.
