B A S K E T

I was persistently reminding you of my craving for a basketball. It was quite a wait. I had a fever when the yellow Pointer ball arrived.

But it was the various pieces of lumber that eventually stood up to serve as goal that remained etched deep in my cortex.

You are not about things bought. You showed me how being there and doing stuff together provides the nuts and bolts of this brief life.

Thank you Papa.
