Baby Blue Sky and Big Brown Eyes

The sky is a brilliant blue today. 
I get my camera and go outside.
As I rush out the door,
my little sister follows me
grabbing a camera of her own.
She wants to be just like me.
We walk around our yard
taking pictures left and right.
After a while I ask her,
Could I take some pictures of you?
She smiles,
letting me see the small gap 
of a tooth she has lost,
and says,
Yes!
and she puts her camera down. 
I begin to snap away. 
She smiles and giggles at the camera,
chattering all the while.
Her big brown eyes sparkle
as they reflect off the warm sunshine.
Like chocolate melting in the summertime.
Her hair dances and twists
in the cool wind
as the sun beats against her light brown locks,
making her hair the color of golden honey.

{I'm not sure if this is really a poem or not but it's just a sweet moment that happened today. :) }

  1. Aw, man! This is so cute. ^.^ I wish there would be no snow (if there's no snow, then might as well label it mushy summer, as my friends and I call it, and be good). The only interesting thing was I revealed to my class I did taeknwondo when I was much younger, and now, it's scary because all of the juniors and seniors, who hate freshmen, are talking to me and I'm just like, "... Huh?"

    xoxo Morning

    1. Aw, thanks! I keep on thinking my town is going to get some snow but it seems to keep on getting sunnier and warmer. Which is really strange because normally the winter is pretty harsh here.
      Haha! ;D You're hilarious, Morning!

    1. Thanks, Autumn! I know what you mean. Even though the weather is getting warmer here, the flu/cold has been spreading like wild fire. I have horrid cold right now, and I've been feeling completely miserable because of it. Hopefully this awful flu/cold will stop spreading so quickly.
      Other than being sick, this winter has actually been surprisingly more enjoyable than I expected. :) I hope you all will feel better soon!
