Sharing a Sunday Afternoon
with my multicolored
bundle of
charismatic joy
Running back and forth
to and fro,
putting her "babies" to sleep,
"Wow, everybody's sleeping
Oh, I'm sooo happy!"
(she announces so simply)
with blankets and covers
on each one -
so ritualistic
and real to her
dropping them like
luggage
at La Guardia
on a shining Sunday afternoon
without apprehension or slightest
care of tomorrow,
Monday Morning
