From Within, With Wynn

For Mary-Wynn, My Goddaughter, Impressions of Her Art
From within
This cage
They call it pack-n-play
And it seems to be
Everywhere we go
The towering walls
Of green
Have gotten smaller
And as I peer
Over
The world is within
My view
They gather always
By Water and
Fire
Glowing dancing
My sisters and friends
Always near
Then disappear
Running playing laughing
And sometimes crying
I sometimes cry too
I want to run
With them
And soon
Mostly they imagine
And create
I’m creative too
Mommy is my
Soul
My flower
And she can
Touch the stars
But always
Holds me near
Daddy is sometimes
Loud
But his soul
Gentle as a lamb
I know
Because his eyes
They sparkle so
When he holds me
High
And I am up
Where the birds
Fly
So much love
Fills my soul
From within
With Wynn
