The Promise

Young body,
Seeped with innocence,
Gleefully singing, skipping,
Light as winter sunshine,
Feels natural, feels secure,
A new seed’s bursting promise.

Author notes

Based on Maya Angelou's 'To Beat the Child Was Bad Enough'.
This is the happy version that I came up with, using some quotes from the poem.

    Hi Jenni

    Just thought I'd have a look at your poetry, glad I did, although you only have one offering, it is sweet, short, well worded, and that leads me to believe there is a lot more hidden in that young brain just bursting to get out.  Again well done, let's see more of your work. Thanks for sharing
