Dick and Jane


Silly boy and little girl lost
Twitching feet and dirty hands crossed
Eying her with pockets upturned
Nodding head and stomach churned.
Taking her in - body and soul
Lapping up gravity from a water bowl.

Chewing her gum and blinking like mad
Scribbling out an idea that she had once had
Watching him drawing - there in the dirt
Spattered mud pies all over his shirt.
Taking in sunlight, but witching the moon
He was bent toward the earth with a filthy spoon.

Caught late in the night and just before frost
Silly boy and little girl lost.

So beautiful, So innocent. It takes me back to a time when... life had different meaning and different purpose. Is it my perception of that difference that changed it or something else? In so many ways I am still niave and blind. Is that also a choice of perception? Interesting questions. Affecting poem.
