Tender child, a rose-in-waiting,

embryonic heart translating

innocence to jaded earth,

poetry before her birth.

    I must echo Pam’s comment (I actually noticed it–I’m not always so observant). I love the last line so much, the idea that perhaps I was a poet before my birth…. God bless you today, Mel–love, sis Caddo
