Spring Day

with squinted eyes and pursed red lips 
you 
like any little child in time 
but that you are mine 
ask me..why are we sitting outside 
I want to go Inside  
to play 
your mind cannot yet grasp 
the answer I know to be true 
that one day a hundred years from now 
when we have turned to dust 
when you look at his light to Thank Him for your journey 
you will pull this memory 
out of your heart 
like a diamond 
glistening in the sun 
and say ah..look  how exquisite 
look how exquisite
