At night, in bed
we whisper of our daughter:
“She’s an artist…”

“Where was I when
you was a little girl?” daughter asks
and I wonder too.
.
When I tell her she
wasn’t born yet she cries -
“I was missing you!”
.
Four years ago in
the hospital, her tiny
feet peeling moist skin.
.
It was a journey
her to me and me to her,
both our destiny.

“Tell me a secret!”
daughter whispers after stories
and before sleeptime.
.
And I do. I tell
her about my young, young life
35 years ago.
.
Looking for shiny
coins in the street, feeling shy
in kindergarten…
.
“Tell me one more!” she
begs but no… no more talking….
now it’s time to dream.
