Second blog -- answers to an ocean of prompts
Kathleen-613's creation for my blog

"Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself."
CHARLIE CHAPLIN

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

David Whyte

Prompt:
Creation Saturday. A twinkling eye can mean many things. Write a poem about a twinkle in someone’s eye.


------------

no shadows on your face
but twinkles in the eyes
a smile wide
on your six-year-old self

you hold your head to the side
your gaze finds my face
is it because
you loved me more, then?

still, so becoming your smile is
and your eyes twinkle
when they find mine,
just like in that old photo,

Son!
