the outside
is pouring
mom says i shouldn't drive in this weather you say
a joyous infectious
inescapable laugh
it is the only time
i have ever thanked the Lord
that you are young
your smiling
and i grab your arm
jumping up and down
stay here you say
and you run outside
i watch you
until you disappear
and on my face
there is a wicked
wicked smile
that won't disappear
