30 Girard
My mother was 28 and afraid
of heights when my father left
leaning on the house the ladder
Bobby and Richy climbed
to view the boats floating
on the Great South Bay.
This was just the beginning
of children leading one
or another to a greater vantage
from the two-story colonial
by the swamp and woods
designated forever wild,
of deciding which one
would be caught if two fell,
of lollipops proffered like bait
luring small children
with wide eyes and sweet tooths
back to terra firma.
