Staring ahead, eyes open wide

Dreams, hope floating

On the pristine white river

Black ball of caution

Keeping check

 

The hot summer air

Brushes my skin

Bruising it and I sit

Hugging secrets

My only treasure

 

A gift wrapped

Adorned with a pretty bow

Within me, totally special

My tiny secret

My little hope

 

I open it a bit at a time

No tears on the paper

Unraveling it a piece

Cherishing it

Dreaming and smiling

 

That curve on my face

I try to hide

Crossing fingers and toes

A minute, a day passes

I live in hope.

 

This is my first post as I prepare myself for another move. Yes! I am moving again and destination next is my big secret. There are a lot of uncertainties and once I have it all squared and boxed I will share it here. Watch out for more
