When Lydia and I
resolved to climb that apple tree -
it was over.
Childhood slipped away,
not all at once,
it took a few moments,
but when her long bare legs
arched over my eyes,
when her skirt
swung over my head
to gain the highest branch,
it was over,
I knew it
and
she knew it.<>
Dear
round-faced
infant girl,
dressed in a long
white gown as satin
as her skin, tranquilly
lies resting in my arms. With
blue eyes softly shut, she seems to
blissfully slumber, unaware of
how innocently beautiful she is.
*The picture, of course, was Lydia on her blessing day
just a few months old. She is my youngest granddaughter
and just turned five years old after Xmas!
For the Gerber Baby Contest of PD
Met Lydia at a party
most were turning away from her
this made her more interesting to me
I like saving other people’s junk
she was a jokester, but her jokes were not funny
she liked me though, began following me around
I became a pariah now
no one wanted to include me
I kept thinking of ways to get rid of her
roll her up in a rug and toss her into a garbage truck
throw her out the six-story window
the more I dreamed the more I smiled
she thought I liked her
