' ' ' ' Falling Awake Asleep! (For Helen)

Rating: 2.7


FALLING AWAKE ASLEEP!

See she falls...asleep.
Storm tossed on sea of dreams.
Now...she falls awake
tumbles out of her big bed
amazed to find herself – here!

*******

ONE GREAT STEP!

Naked...takes...first...steps
knocking over....ooops...cans of paint.
Footprints...fingerprints
fossilise her great attempts.

A morning’s evolution!

*******

ALL THE FUN OF HER HAIR!

Her halo of hair
candyfloss soft to the touch
looks like – Harpo Marx.
Takes big bite of candyfloss
bigger than her little self.
