a little girl

FrasMac

a little girl

 

a little girl

with a church full of friends

for her artist’s brush

chose to paint my nose.

 

I asked, “what colour

is my nose, is it red

like a clown or white

like a cat or black like

a dog or blue like I’m cold?”

 

she smiled

that way only little girls do

when they know

a thing and it’s

all about you –

 

“I painted you nice!”

 

and skipped away with my soul.

    Honesty through the eyes of a child. Nicely written
