In these dim days, I have been looking for bits of joy. My ordinary life, has become even more ordinary. I have slowed, and looked and paid attention to all the small things in my day. Turns out I’ve been missing allot.
I had a little girl stop in my office with her Dad, she is about four. In moments we had a glorious visit together and I’m still smiling about it.
The Girl
In a moment she slipped into my world.
Her smile curious, as we greeted,
she asked my name, and I asked her’s.
And just like that, we were friends.
I complimented her aqua blue
princess earrings.
She told me they were clip-ons.
She said she liked my blue eyes, and my dark brown hair
I replied that her golden hair was beautiful.
She smiled.
We continued complimenting everything about one another,
until we floated.
Her shirt said, Wonder Woman
I asked if she was a superhero.
She told me, Yes.
As she turned to leave, I asked,
What are your superpowers?
With confidence she said, I can fly, and I’ll save everyone.
Yes, I believe you will, darling girl
Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
