Young Again
By Lee Carlson
pert young lass
golden curls trailing
across her neck
skipping to her lesson
carefree journey with
one serious regret
piano practice undone
'what will teacher think?'
five year old arrives
with a plan
and a question
'Nora, can we just talk?'
talk they do and then some
'til the precocious one offers
another stalling request,
'you play and I'll dance!' -
birthing a creative duet
years rush by, she's dancing still
singing, laughing, loving -
to this very day talking,
telling stories her forte indeed
the mature woman still young
