little boy sucking on a lollipop and
dangling his feet over the edge,
giggles like soft wind chimes
little boy with dark blond curls
and eyes so full of stars
looks across the blue-green waters
wondering how bright the sunshine is
mirrors of the innocence
youth in watercolors
little boy, crooked smiles and bouncy steps
will you grow up in a world of fear and hate?
