sweet pea scent
her dolls still sprawled across room
bed unmade

Mmmmm...sweat pea, a sweet taste of budding passion, a course yet undefined, unconfined...I really like how this poem bespeaks of growing futures Laura...J.A.B.

oh, sweetie. This is sad. Yes, one's presence does linger long after they are gone...To lose a child must be a terrible thing. Congrats on winning in Justin's contest. You wrote a fabulous piece. :) Hugs

Thanks very much! I had this poem tucked in under a load of stuff... forgotten poetry... this one's not too long ago though. Thanks for stopping by! I need to start catching up on your work! I love your poetry! ~Laura
