Waiting

Bubbles and stars
barbies and scars
vanilla ice cream and chocolate pudding
and mom hugs
and dad's stories
and granny's cakes
climbing trees
bloody knees
and singing and smiling and crying and
colours and smells and the whole world just waiting for us.
And now it's us
waiting for the world.

Already?

So many things I had planned
and pictures I had in my mind of
a house
and a car
and a cool job
and children
and me walking around having it all and knowing it all
and I still feel like that little girl dreaming
but my time is gone.
When did that happen?

This little spring

This little butterfly sitting on this little flower
The little girl walking the little dog

This blue sky reflecting on the blue window
The blue car parking in front of the blue house

This pretty yellow flower on the yellow wall
The yellow mailbox on the yellow door

And you walking
smiling
feeling the sunshine on your cheeks
hearing laughter and
smelling spring in the air.

Spring spreading smiles.

Mrs. Else

I
miss
art that makes my thoughts fly
I
miss
silence
that makes me hear by heart beat
I
miss
nice words that warm my soul
I
miss
smiling when the sun shines
I
miss
being someone else.
