Your strong
Little hand
Rarely rests in
Mine
Your mind
On an adventure
Most of the time
You don’t
Like to hear me
Sing
You won’t
Say goodbye
To anyone
You and Me
Animal calls
spill
From your heart
Tell me everything
Is alright
You leap with
Flare
Over puddles
On rocks
Your whole body
Tense and ready
Take flight
Your excitement
Joy
In the littlest thing
A bug
An acorn hat
A feather
A twig
Makes my heart
Skip
A beat
Remember to wonder right
Along with you
You and Me
You are
Who
You are
You don’t apologize
I could
Endlessly stare
Into your eyes
There I find
A piece of
My soul
The piece
That I gave you
So I could
Be your mom
