Kaleidoscope


I love to watch you

Take in the world

Close yet distant

Eyes wide

and Vibrant

Complex

Ever changing

In the twist of a moment.




Linking up for the first time over at Red Writing Hood.  This week’s assignment was simple: write a story of your choice. The catch? Write it as a tweet. Use only 140 characters – including spaces.

Thank you ladies for stopping in! I actually did write this with my boys, especially my youngest, in mind.
