I know how long you waited
for the days
When all the good things
would come tumbling from the sky
And on one warm mist
covered morning they fell
Not as you imagined, but they
were all the greater for being that.
I know how long you wished for
all the kindnesses
To fall into your lap - some
landed in disguise but
You grew to love them all
the same.
You stuck your wet finger in
that sugar
And had a taste of what happiness was
One taste was all that you were
allowed and now you have to say goodbye
But remember this - there
are some of us who never even got to dip.
