Clarity In a Treasure Box

CURLS
hair cut
big boy now

tied up with ribbon
locked in box of treasures
with my sentimental tears

"another childhood memento"

I have my own boy-baby curl saved in my son's baby book. This short ditty is powerfully emotional, you packed each line well. Simply lovely and touching ... CayCay
