D is the side street that takes me home. D, and nothing else. Family member to, of course, E, F, C, B, and A.
This house used to be my Pa and Meemaw's. Meemaw still owns it, but has graciously allowed us to nest here. The house should be in a movie; it's painted green, square, surrounded by holly hocks, which I used to eat as a child, lily of the valleys, peonies, hibiscus, hen and chicks, clematis, tulips, lily trees, lemon mint, which I love to roll in my hands, and lilacs; there is a dilapidated shed with a black raspberry patch; green onions grow by a bolder. Chain link fence. Carpeted front porch.
David and I lay a quilt out and picnic, cloudgaze, and joke about taking a silver Sharpie to the green street sign and renaming D St.
