The Girl

I left her in a makeshift hut Tugging scarecrow ropes Scaring hundred of birds Saving pregnant rice stalks. She was 10 years old I am now 60 years old I have a dream last night I revisited her… Together We excavated unforgettable gleeful moments!

I am enjoying reading some very diverse poetry today. I am glad yours was amongst the ones posted here that I was able to read and enjoy Dalila. Love, Carol
