Smirks And Snowflakes

right now
she roams
through the kitchen
leaving dolloped
tears
staging whimpers
before
her big sister
who smirks
her tiny
piggy-tailed braids
wrapped
in yellow
(her fwavewit cowor)
lugging
toys
(her fwavewits)
to her chamber
head down
eyes are heavy
as
snowflakes
upon the fabric
of her jammies
sagging
from
behind
sissy hides a smile
one video
slowly
reaches
its
place
upon
the
shelf
and
no two
are ever the same.

Beautiful content! The picture is divine. . . perfectly wonderful in color; and would make a beautiful 'black and white' cover for your poetry about children.

Great contribution!

Fanks, Tewee! Barbara...my gosh, great idea! I have quite a few, but this one is a good one. I don't use flash, and getting her to sit still for even one moment is quite a job..LOL!
