Sunday
ReplyDeleteI saw a
little girl
with
lovely
shining
red hair.
"You have beautiful hair," I said. "Do you like it, yourself?"
She was
wide-eyed
and smiling ~
but silent,
bouncing from foot to foot
in the shallow end.
"Well," I said. "Just you remember. It is really gorgeous. Not everyone gets a head of hair like that."
I was thinking, all the time,
of another small girl
with the loveliest red hair
imaginable
in any universe.
Wish great pictures
could include
everyone
everyone
everyone
we are missing.

Are you sure #4 is really sun tea? He's eyeing that mug like it's got something with a little more kick than tea : )
ReplyDeleteBeth, it is! Click on the image to enlarge it -- you can see the bags steeping :) BUT, I sure do like to use sun tea in a good John Daly... Come over for one with me soon!
