First Grade—Day 1



On Day 1 I looked in wonder 
Into her deep, quiet, strong eyes, 
Like a vast snow-covered field at night—
Fresh from heaven— 
Ready to embark on the journey of life. 

On Day 2,211 I look on in mercy 
At her timid yet strong eyes, 
Comforted by heavenly embrace, 
Ready to embark on the jittery journey of grade school.
