xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She is dying. Come and see
The innocence of sky-blue eyes
Gazing back so wonderingly
While we, in tears, say our goodbyes.
There should be time for childhood smiles,
And moments when her charm beguiles,
But chance has stolen these away
And left us with a single day.
While I dream dreams of laughing games
Upon a sandy sea-tossed beach,
Of chase and tag... “You’re it!” she claims,
There’s one small pixie trying to reach
The tree that’s “safe” in hide-and-seek.
She, rabbit-like, pops up to peek
From hiding, finding Daddy’s arms
Are ready to embrace her charms.
Her mother dreams of desert dunes,
Of warm and soothing selat rumbles,
To share amid the ancient runes
Of Vulcan script and rocky tumbles.
Familiar logic stays the pain
That’s sure to come when once again,
A mother’s tears are shed for one
Whose life is ending, left undone.

there was a time:
it was so beautiful it could have been a song. it made me cry a little.
"The Foo-ball" is fantastic! It's perfectly Suess-esque and just delightful.
