just one more before i go on holiday, hope you like it.
The joy of a child
Not only am I sun-kissed
but I carry stars in my palm,
blue stars that I might have caught -
though it is known a star may fall
it cannot be caught,
held tight,
carried about like a dream.
My blue stars fell
from the round eyes of children
and I carry them,
feather-weight gifts
with palm pressed to heart
so I will never forget
the pleasures of learning
next to them.

Very nicely done, I love the feeling that you carry stars that might have caught- wonderful!
Hope your holidays are grand!

thank you both. :) i've just got back and my mind is overflowing with all i've seen. hopefully in the next week i'll be able to unmuddle the memories and create some worthy words for my scenes.
