Fam’ly assembled:
Eight strong! Owner of diner
takes charge: center stage.
Oliver sidles
close; tells of measuring tape
that springs in and out.
I showed him zippers.
His sister stole the show so
He makes fingers arrows
rotating round; they
cycled, speeding, straight to my
heart! love finding home!

Went to my son’s house
for Birthday cake ‘n candles;
Got diarrhea.
Dog knew; tried to help
clean me up; grand kids puzzled.
Washed, girded myself
for frigid drive home.
My son smiled: “That’s life, Nana.”
(solicitous gaze)
Each cared for me; showed
support, compassion’s gentle
lift: patience’s child.

Change the scale; viewpoint!
That’s entertainment: script, song,
laughter, showmanship!
Today I was transfixed reading David Wiesner’s Caldecott winner book: Mr Wuffles!
The point of view is from the eyes of insects!

past the knees and pull!
