Monday

we walk

your hand in mine
is trust
that I will watch for the fast cars
as we cross the road

my hand in yours
is time
to walk in the sunshine
before this day moves on

This is really beautiful, Benjie. I'd love to print it in Connor's school newsletter (we always start off with a poem). I'd do it with attribution, of course. If you agree, drop me an email with how you want it signed. If you don't, I totally understand. The poem has already made my day nicer.
