Beginning

A Tennessee day, begat with my awakening

young in age, perhaps 2, if my opinion we’re taking

A run, as my feet and legs were made sturdy

to run to the room where clothes were transported when dirty

Jumping to remove myself from the strength of earth’s natural pull

The reason: A jar sat atop the clothes cleaner, and stomach not full

My voice made noise to indicate that I had a need

My mother arrived and to my request, she gave heed.

My view on the world had only begun

food for hunger, play for fun

not much else to say for this

twas what twas, tis what tis.
