Abigail

'ring the squirrel bell'
Do you recall
There were windows overlooking carousels
And pumpkin fields
In the museum where I found you
Do you recall
There were comets who sang just like teakettles
And ???
In outer space where I found you
Now that you're older
Who will sing to you again?
Do you recall
There were puddles shaped just like maple leaves
And nightingales
In that rainy town where I found you
Now that you're older
Who will sing to you again?
Do you recall, Abigail
When we were children
In northern Maine
