Now Looking Back With Anticipation
Slow down child
don’t wish
your life away
like that ..
We know its late
but the cogs
and the wheels
are still turning ..
And while
I dare not look
back to see
what the future
might hold
by consulting
the leaves in my
new china
teacup darling ..
Each swirling
earl grey
murmeration
that I previously
found there ..
Now fills me
to the very brim
with much
love and indeed,
joyful anticipation ..
