........................This Image Is Stamped On My Heart.........................

________________________________________________________________________________________________


Linda Oliverio
Rocky Point 1953


The girl in the picture is dancing in my DNA

She is waving off  the peach her Mother is offering
She is waving off  the peach my Mother is offering

I ate that peach
at that beach
on that day

I can still taste it today

I read every letter that she sends me
Even though I have to write them myself

Dear Brother
We know how much it hurt
for you to not be in New York 
on Carol's Birthday.

Our mother and her mother 
celebrated Carol's Birthday
by going out dancing.

Grace and Eleanor went out dancing
  but they only danced with each other.
  

P.S. Here is a copy of "My Song" 
performed in the year I was born.
