Sara on a Carousel

Sara on a carousel

Swinging away the day

To which she was born into

A kind of hitherto intro

To this life filled madness

& when does sadness first touch

The heart

When does heartbreak start & end

When does life interfere & cause one to bend

To its will?



Still she looks so cute going in circles

Above the floor as if she has

Opened a door to her innocence

& let us peek inside

We seek to hide all that is insufficient

With our lives

The husbands & wives going blindly

Through their days & concocting bitter

Ways to hurt the ones they love

But none of the above has any concern for Sara

Look at her go ‘round & ‘round

Circling to infinity

Her laughter wafting up into the sky

Unbeknownst to the lies we all carry

Scary isn’t it, the thoughts we keep

Still waters run deep



The ride over Sara makes the leap into my arms

& all is calm in her heart

What a start

To Eternity.
