she will take on the world one day.
I could see her brain working, thinking, categorizing,
judging, reflecting, speaking her truth,
how she sees the world from all directions,
even considering Fox News vs The New York Times.
She is a thinker.
I see her hands working as the sun beats down
in the heat, the temperatures reaching towards 97F,
her hands pulling up mint and grass, leaving
behind dirt which will rest under newspaper
until next Spring to welcome seeds of melons
and flowers.
She is no longer a little girl happy to cuddle in
her parents' arms
She is demanding of the world,
she will take on the world one day.
I look forward to it.
