' ' ' ' ' Blue Dress(For Junie)

Rating: 2.8


We sit
in an enormous field

that greens
around us

your blue dress
nailing us to
the centre of the universe

you making me
jewellery

of bright young daisies

as I breathe softly
upon a dandelion clock

and time
holding forever

your laughing
beautiful face

smiling through the dancing
dandelion seeds

as I smile

years later through my tears

What phrasing! That green field with 'Your blue dress nailing us to the center of the universe! ' Just awesome, and just the way children feel they are! Perfect!
