Jealous Little Girl - Poem

Writer's picture: Grace PoynterGrace Poynter

Hand in hand they walk by.

The little girl is looking up

To the man she has never seen cry,

His chest sticks out a little more

As they walk, hand in hand, through the store.


And here I am, a piece

In my puzzle of memories.

A forever release

Of my hand -- jealous

For the dad and little girl who used to be us.

This is a beautiful, sad memory. My heart cries for that little girl. who will one day walk with him again, and that makes my heart smile. ♥️
