green
brave
naïve
book-smart
rose-colored
beautiful
innocent
everyone’s friend
jumping in the puddles
sloshing through the rain
rolling in the grass
climbing down the trees
squinting at the sun
holding carefully the bugs
planting the lambs ear
sniffing the tulips
chasing thunderclouds
snuggle on your lap
sunning on the porch
sneaking another cookie
coloring outside the lines
scooping up the snow
splashing in the sink
placing seashells on the dresser
sinking toes in the sand
spritzing mom’s perfume
reading ‘historical romance’ novels
rinsing in the tub
crosswords at the table
christmas morning glee
birthday party guests
band concert solos
piano lessons
the bug zapper
tearless sundays
all the cousins
grandpa’s pool
crickets
grandma
myself:
naïve
brave
green
