I am a small child, again -
wrapped in the arms of
Some One who loves.
Strong arms,
wrapped around
never release
never leave
always
Katy Owens Oct 2011
I love you

Yes, this is true
As factual as the sky is blue

...You're pretty
And witty

Just a little ditty
Because I love you

And missing you is nothing new
But soon our separation will be through!

If, there’s a will
There’s a way
Or so
The old poets say
But, in the end
Is there a way
Or even will
Left
At the end of the day
If there’s a will
There’s a way
Or so
The old foolish poets
Used to say
Now, they say
There’s no will
So there’s no way
For life, has taken
It all
Away

Take
A closer look
At the world around you
There’s nothing telling to
In the Rule Book,
It’s true

But, focus in for
Another look
A closer Look
And things may not be
As they seemed
Immediately
Or as they seemed before
New shapes, and colors
Appear
On the floor

Zoom in
Quite close
To a tiny timid flower
Give confidence as
You watch it
Grow
Hour, by hour

A new tree
Stripped bare
Clutched
In winter’s repose
Glistening with crystal hair
Winter’s frozen dew

Stoop down and see
A shiny
New
Penny
Old Abe’s face turned up
Soaking up sun and waiting
To be
Someone’s lucky day

So
Take a closer look
Take a moment to be
Reflective
Surprised
To see
This old familiar world
From this New Perspective

Diamonds
Overrated
Who wants
Diamonds
To dangle, on ears
To hang from throat
To weigh down fingers
To tickle toes
Diamonds
Who cares
Yes,
They look good
Yes,
They cost lots
But who wants
Diamonds
I want
Pearls

You love the sparrows

big
and small.

You love us

All
even
    
     when
      
              we

                     fall
