My first poem in twenty years.....

Posted by Colleen D. on March 8, 2006, at 20:01:24

I wrote this today while I was lying in bed waiting for my two-year-old daughter to join me for a nap. These are the kinds of moments I hope I never forget.

Proof
I wait, silent and still in the dusk,
under billowy covers
listening for proof of tiny footsteps.
First, an unsteady landing,
then a gallop, a sprint, a leap;
a warm full kiss, wet upon my cheek.
