She lets me brush her hair sometimes
Says her dad used to do it
He's been dead for ten years now

The brush slides through
Sand colored, silk thread
Like rain down a window

She can't remember the song
He used to sing
Before she was too old
To let her father baby her

Pale yellow
Light paints
Turning sand into gold

She closes her eyes

She isn't with me
She’s with daddy
Falling asleep to a lullaby
And a soft brush through her hair

Beautiful imagery bringing to life precious memories.

this is absolutely lovely

This part is wonderful:

The brush slides through

Sand colored, silk thread

Like rain down a window

*no thermometer rating

I agree about

the title..though I usually give things a harmless title..I think it springs the intensity better.

Beautiful Images and a tender poem.

I like the rain on the window line myself...but it's phrased the way I write.

I think it could be more intense, richer, but i also like it the way it is.

The trick is knowing when you are done.

Thank you
