It used to be invisible to me, the geography of home: street names - TopicsExpress



          

It used to be invisible to me, the geography of home: street names Felinda, Galbar, Bobier, Chasin, Thunder Drive; parks and playgrounds Brengle Terrace, John Landis, Buddy Todd. Exits to Flower Hill Mall, Oceanside Harbor, Moonlight Beach. But now that old map is all I can see, those mundane places lit up in a sunburst of memory against the blur of the new and unrecognizable. Geography floods me with a shock of delight, being back in my phantom youth, and a small sigh of sadness that that youth is gone forever. #home
