Author's note: I'm in my mid-eighties, and I've just finished writing this collection of poems drawn from my boyhood years. They're not poems about my early life-they're poems from my early life. Each poem arose from a separate journey. I went back, became the boy I once was, then took a snapshot of something happening in that place and time.
