She climbs
upon my knee
& then
wobbles almost topples
...off!
I catch her
& HO! HO! HO! her.
Ask her
what does she '...want
for Christmas
little girl.'
Suitably Santa'd
she plants a foot
on each of my
patellas
stands firm
like a minature
Collusus
of Rhodes
holds on to
my neck
kisses me.
'Me want cuddles! '
A tear trickles
down my cheek.
She laughs
& licks it off.
We cuddle.
Tenderness shared without undue ornamentation. A light-hearted look at love everlasting. Beautiful. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
