Rescued from an Old Note-Book

I know the back of this hand too well.
I want to be fifteen again-
The world like a jar of marmalade,
And me with a silver spoon in my mitt.

Nostaligia or regret?

Not nostalgia. Regret maybe (if only I'd known then what I know now). But mainly greed.

Hah! Good reason.
