2008
Thick slices of white bread.
Freshly buttered, full of gluten
Fresh cakes and spaghetti,
Melted chocolate pudding.
For red cheeks and sticky fingers,
Gazing up to a bright purple sky.
I want to wrap you in those soft clouds,
Hold you close and promise I’ll try.
Serve you golden days
On a sparkling silver platter
Seconds and thirds of love songs
For the little one, you matter.
