Those clunky, rose and blue hues
matched intensely with her shockingly
furry royal navy
blue coat, fitted
with an almost militaristic
precision.
The black figure beside her
was whispering humbly
in strange foreign verses
seemingly intended
to comfort her.
Those goofy, orange, striped stockings
make me wonder.
Tinkling colors
strewn clumsily across the floor
surrounded by smudged crayons
orange, pink and blue
reminding me of a world
I might never
see.
Makes me wonder
how might I have been
when I was
three.
