A Letter to Lauren

One-Hundred and Forty-One Colors
"Twinkling turquoise, plum violet, tangerine./Grass green and tickle-me-pink./Paper peeling, broken soldiers on coloring book fields./Wax rainbows shatter on the floor./Sweep up fragments of life and set them in a row./Playing pickup sticks with light." Of crayons and childhood.
