When I walked in

You were wearing
my favorite color
It’s the same hue
As my Pop’s car
When I was a kid-
Carnival glass
Sea foam
The color of optimism
When times were simpler.
Where clouds were cumulous
And the sky was iridescent
A mermaids tail
Swimming above me
Promising candy
if to a child.
Nostalgic,
I see better times
Through you.
