Child

Fingers gliding quickly over ivory keys

Notes flowing in a stream of musical harmony

 

Through an open window this music flies

To meet with the softly padding feet of a

Child turning and dancing along the sand

 

The gentle waves licking at her feet as her

Bright smile and cheery laughing ring out

 

Through the morning mist

 

Patches of sunlight streaming through

Like little spotlights upon this tiny dancer

 

Helping her along with her giggles

the sunlight dances with her

her eyes showing nothing but

 

Innocence and laughter and love

of everything and nothing

 

Things that come and go
