"Lighthouse Dandelions" Jamie Wyeth


paint yourself
striped wildcat 
arch your eyebrows 
then jiggle the 
ice, round 
and round
in your jelly glass of 
sunbeams

wink knowingly
as the pretty young things 
come 
and pirouette cleverly 
at your feet
gypsy soul whisperer
father figure 
candle on the water

    ha. rather fun piece...the father figure adds poignance to me...maybe just being a father and understanding that responsibility...
