A gentle jostle, a benign unintended move, so apparently her awkward accident
Important to chat with the owner, unfurl a bright silken blanket
Each to leave a look, as one-handed she snapped the fabric into the air
Letting it flutter, filling the store window with brilliant color
It will be all they remembered, as always, opening that occasional portal of time
through which she slips yet another child into the annals of absentia
Oh, I like it. Wonderful, Dr. Pearl. The perfect twist.
ReplyDeleteMuch thanks MP! I so appreciate your comments. Off to your wordle...I go :)
ReplyDeleteIt moved gently at the beginning in spite of that jostle and then the flurry of colors which gave the twist to end in Oh! oh!! Beautiful and had to read it twice over Dr PKP!!
ReplyDeleteOooh! Mysterious and a bit sinister there at the end; I wasn't expecting that at all. Well wordled. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Traci ....off to see yours:)
