as daddy
boils water to kill ants
i say hello blue sky
hot and happy, sunday forever
playing games
at the foot of the garden
tomorrow far away
wasps and lemonade
freshly cut grass, flowers face up
with a dog chasing stones
monty, a boys best friend
afternoon car journeys
to swamps bigger than the sea
pine trees
one, two, three
smiles, true smiles
spreading like strawberry jam on toast
crunching
beneath baby teeth so tender
this is me, still me
somewhere deep inside
