Transformation

transformation

pollywogs paddle
about her five year old toes
frogs in the making

summer kissed her cheek
awesome faces peer from leaves
freckles blooming now

at the waters edge
bullfrogs baroom a  mating call
dusk whispers secrets

pie shop sells lemon
apple and boysenberry
poison berry to us

blankets on cool nights
hudson bay soft wooly warm
loons serenade child

I rather like this one as well, Patricia; it has a "child-like-innocence" attached to it...whispers of happy days from long ago. Very nice! :) john

My ballroom gown consisted of bare feet and a well worn bathing suit but it was all I needed. Thanks Timothy
