What do you see # 100 – September 20, 2021
For the visually challenged reader, the image shows sunlight beams are falling on a mother and daughter walking in the forest, holding hands.
This is not my usual walk through the woods with my daughter Today I am alone, walking through God’s fingers A warm touch of heaven, I tell myself My feet leave the ground My body lifted to the top of the canopy I hover there like some high wire act From a forgotten circus My heart in my mouth The land lies before me A giant monopoly board With houses, hotels, a patchwork quilt of adventure From here I cannot see people I assume them to be Tom Thumb sized While I am Gulliver, overlooking Lilliput For a moment, my mind wonders how I will get down Am I expected to climb? A firm swift movement lowered my feet to the ground I found my daughters hand in mine It’s twelve o clock and all’s well… © Anita Dawes 2021
