    Sweetest picture! Love the action of your poem; banana popsicle me/beach me – you just described my childhood to a T; especially the skinned knees part! Charmed!!

        Cottonwood tree me
        rising above the rooftops
        amid the summer snow
        riding the freshest winds

    good childhood memories. šŸ™‚ probably a silly question, why end the first line of each stanza with “me”?

      Good question! Ending in “me”
      verbifies the noun. Popsicle is a noun — but popsicle me (beach me; hopscotch me) is now an action, a verb. Make sense?
      Calliope me round and round til the music lulls my brain….šŸ˜Š
