Fresh Start
The day we brought
You home from the
Hospital--
Tiny,
Pink
New—
The trees were frosted in
Delicate neon
Green,
Cluttered with milk-white popcorn blossoms;
The robin was busy
Building her
Nest
Under the eaves of the
A-frame--
Everything bright, clean, new,
As if the world’s beginning
Were just for me and you.
