Picking up fallen peaches
squirming away from bugs.
I like dog kisses and cat’s fur
against my hands.
Not spider and rolly-polly feet
or ants.
Katie’s never feared a creepy-crawly.
Snatches peaches two or three at once
fills the bucket by the time
I’ve taken two from the ground.
She complains
she did all the work.
haha...she did all the work...i love peaches...dont mind the bugs though, but dog kisses are nice...smiles...
ReplyDeleteOh this is great, with few words you create a real picture of Katie, and you picking up the peaches... it's a nice snapshot in words. Very much enjoyed!
ReplyDeleteAwww...very sweet...well, except for the complaint by Katie..haha..a perfect, little snippet of real life...bugs and all.
ReplyDeleteSweet. I don't mind rolly-pollies, but the other bugs, yes.
ReplyDeleteThis make me smile, too. Makes me think of my own memories of gathering peaches with my sister once on a vacation, eating too many of them and then....
