Ang & I

School has rolled off your back
and now you kick up your heels
while singing a new hard song

With orchard rows behind
and skyscrapers in your wake
you saunter over this earth

Arms open wide
spinning, off comes the old
a child no longer stands

Healing light in your eyes
and new goals to make
you conquer with each step


This is
my baby
who I will be
spending my days with
I feel healed
when she is home
happy to wrap myself
up with her
and drown
in her light.
