I saw a little boy in the water today.
Same skinny body.
Same blond hair.
He looked just like him from behind.
I saw a little girl at the water park today.
Same curly bond hair.
Same way of squatting on the ground.
She looked just like her from behind.
I saw a little girl walking through the woods today.
Same little sandals and sundress.
Same blond bobbed hair.
She looked just like her from behind.
Echoes
After those years go by. Visual echoes. Sometimes they take a while to come back...but they always do. In a flash; in an unexpected second; there they are.
...not sure if this makes me feel a bit sad, or just nostalgic..but I do know that my heart is beating faster right now..
