Fingertips flutter with grace
Over land and sea
To reach my sandy haired boy
He floats on dreams
Beyond the white picket fence
Telling tales of distant lands
My sandy haired boy is free
With a bright mind
He finds color in newspaper
Arms open wide
Running to descending rainfall
Wild, that my sandy haired boy is
Wicked grins follow stolen kisses
Envelop his brain with memory
Past is where my sandy haired boy exists
