Sepia Smiles and Candy Striped Fences...
Today i stood below a lofty sky
Pon a balcony
While
I watched you paint
Candy stripes pon a wooden fence
And i just
Melted
I witnessed your tones of flesh move
With a lulling rhythm
Which sent me to places
We have shared
Adored
Cherished
And i smiled
Today you laughed at your painting mistakes
As you considered the Paint Police arriving in strawberry pink
Helmets
And it was a sepia moment to be stored
And relished at
a later date
Many times over
And squeezed gently
With a smile
When we are very old.....
