My Little Man


so tiny

full of promise

laughter filled love

red hair for no reason

fascination with creatures

picking them up as he goes

innocently holding them

just to have them in his pocket

so grown now

days and minutes from adulthood

knows everything

and mom loves him any way

    "red hair for no reason" is a fabulous line. It spins the poem off into a thousand other ponderings.
