The
Light fell sofly in bands of reds, purples, and golds
On
the waters it fell mingling with the ocean’s foam on wave crests
Before
gliding on down sparkling each ripple
It
rested on treetops brightening each leaf and frond
Then
sliding on downto the sand
Glittering
each granule like diamonds
Warming
the small one as she sat digging her castle’s mote on water’s edge
It
highlighted the clouds before catching a rideon a great golden red bird
Nestling
in its feathers as he folded his wings and dove
Coming
to settle next to small one
Quietly
she offered him part of her loaf and cheese
And
he in turn brightened her space with a song
Coaxing
a smile of delight that sparkled in her eyes.
