Do you remember when
Easter weekends were
Four day getaways
with a half day headstart?
Aching souls
longing for the sun
and a respite
from never-ending winters
Out on the road
armed with pistachios
and an idea
journeys without maps
New England
Inns and out
in Vermont
and New Hampshire
South Carolina
barren beaches
dinner in Old Town
since burned to the ground
Never quite
getting there
Never quite
escaping.
— Mark Butkus
