Tomato sandwich

The tomato sandwich
Is anything better
Salt pepper mayo
Eating them so clever

White loaf bread
No wheat please
Making them simple
A quick breeze

Add bacon lettuce
Good food to me
Then you got
A BLT




Corner of Dallis Street and Truitt Avenue

Sitting on the porch at Grandma's Smith house just wasting away a summer's day.

Leafing through a Sears&Roebuck catalog playing all on this page is mine.Eating the ever present weenies and sour kraut.

Being sent to Jacobs store and what ever change was left you can have Grandma would say.

Playing in the big ditch.

Watching Tarzan all day on the TV.

Smokey Joe's and those hamburgers and a big dill pickle.

Sitting on the front porch steps watching the world pass by waiting on Pete the ice cream man.

Those Sunday dinners when all our Aunts,Uncles and Cousins would be there.

What are your memories of the corner of Dallis Street and Truitt Avenue?

Had a dream

Daddy I had a dream last night.

We got a chance to say things to each other that had been left unspoken.

Love and missing you.
