Below is my attempt for today:

If I Were My Child
I would hold my own hand,
mosey along lily-pad pond, skip
a day or two of (pre)occupation
about being right, rock
myself awake, dab at my own
fears, dabble in anything
that pushed me away, listen
for a dollar, then listen for nothing
more than warmth
of knowing love is the means,
but not guaranteed.
Really great close-up photo, Linda! Congrats on transferring your writing to the computer.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Amanda!
DeleteTo 'dab at ones own fears is a wonderful concept'. Hope you are well and sliding into the new year comfortably.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Misky. Wishing the same to you!
