and in this day
there is fulfillment
the sun has arrived
on cue.
and birds chirk
and dew sits diamond like
on green, green grass
and the mailboxis
collared by string
attatched to a bright red
balloon
drinks glisten in plastic cups
sauasge rolls warm in the oven
the chicken wings are in there too
bowls of lollies await consumption
and knicknacks are wrapped in
yesterday's news
today another year
rolls on bye
seems to this mother
in less than a blink
of an eye
gifts unwrapped
and a puppy
named Snap
pictures taken
measurement on the
kitchen door jamb
he grows
tall and strong
but still
and forever
my little man
