Naked girl

giggling down the road

Babysitter chasing

with the bath towel.

Toddler joyfully

on the run.

I can still hear the giggles in memory, though the toddler in question is now 33 years old.  🙂

    Yep. My story is a lad, naked except for cowboy boots, playing in a front-yard dirt pile. That boy is now sixty-four.

    A charming poem to begin the morning. BTW, although a Michiganian, I’ve visited that part of BC several times. Love Fraser Canyon, Revelstoke, and Rogers Pass.

  11. After reading this poem, your imagination starts to work. You dream about a little girl and her babysitter is chasing her. That’s awesome.

    I remember a similar situation – mine is now 19. This piece oozes sweet with a nostalgic tear.

  14. Haha. Its funny how you get a kick out of this when you’re younger. Why? You have no idea what nakedness is. But knowing your parents will chase you makes it all worth it.
