Summer
Through the leaves
dappled sunlight
falls across my shoulders.
Swinging, Swinging
Swishing, Sailing
Higher, Higher
The wind tickles my legs.
Giggles bubble in my tummy.
Palettes of My Childhood
Yellow sun, blue sky, green grass
Brown earth, black shoes, pink socks
White house, red barn, golden wheat
Purple blooms, orange crush, saffron smiles
Colors of my prairie life.
Winter
Cold crunch
Yellow Bus
Breath of fog
Yelp of dog
Trembling, Stinging
Hot tears over ice.
