Unlocked Fence
Fences are a hot topic in my nation these days. The subjects of how high, how long and how much it will cost are in the news almost daily.  There is no mention of gates, only the fence.

 unlocked fence
beckons one to come inside
clang of gate

    walk across the countryside
   miles stretch across horizon
   sun drains all but hope

       finally free?
      the child is taken
      from parent's arms

Carpe Diem #941 Heart The blue-eyed, blond haired boy stole my heart when he was just a kicking fetus.  The love continued to grow as we watched him coo, then talk his special talk.  Grandaddy, (Nandad) always let him play with the tool box.  Screwdrivers were i-dikers.  Caboose was bagoose. The Playskool Tyke Bike was and is nooden-nooden.  When looking for someone, he would say their name in a sing song, quizzical fashion while shaking his head in a negative fashion.  He now uses words he learned during his college and grad school years two decades ago.  These words are not nearly as fun as those precious made up toddler words. thunderclap acts as a bossy stormhorn rainbrella time! ©   Janice 'petra domina' Adcock Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on  CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI
