Lake Naomi, Pa.

May 1974

We'll start with love

Come

take my hand

I'll lead you down along the creek.

Listen

hear the birds

the wind in the trees

the water rushing down to the sea.

Sit here on the bank

and let your feet dangle in the water.

Lie back and let me study you.

.

There are so many things about you I don't know.

Important things, Like:

Do you like birds or butterflies?

Do you like walking in the rain?

How many moles do you have?

or how many freckles, when you stay to long in the sun?

.

Someday I'll take the time to count them.

Meanwhile, I'll fill your life with happy things:

Candy coated apples,

chocolate sundaes,

love.

.

Come, let's go back inside,

we can start with love.
