Poem #4

Today my dad and stepmom came down and painted our bedroom while Jeff and I "helped" and kept the boys from touching the paint. I love the new look.

Brush strokes
on the bedroom walls
all painted now
no hint of mint
the sky of spring equinox
long ago eclipsed
by summer and now fall
fall into darkness
and wetness
outside
but inside,
inside my room
spring blue skies
