White paper
On the floor
Lilac purple streaks
Blue ovals
Yellow dots and crooked lines
Green on white
Light blue streaks
Flowing from a crayon
Held by a little finger
Focus of a 4-year-old
Attention of a 32-year-old
Watching her
Creating what she likes
What she likes to see
Drawing
And drawing
Lines of colors
Everywhere
“Mommy look, Pretty.”

Author Bio: Everyday is so busy and full of clutter. Small moments, like watching my daughter create with crayons, need to be more noticed. She wants me to notice, and then I do. And I love that I am completely impressed by her.
