They were here for under 24 hours.
Things shouldn't "disappear".
Four adults scoured the house,
looking for anything left behind
or forgotten.
But, slowly
throughout the week,
small heartshots revealed themselves
A pacifier
dropped as something new to explore was found.
A sippy cup
Abandoned in the excitement
of being outside
and dogs and balls and running
A shirt nestled in the couch
A package of wipes forgotten on the table.
All found at different times
On different days
bringing smiles in the midst
of a busy week
Little heart shots . . . I like that. Memories that last. Make you smile. Sweet moments of remembrance. Thanks for making me smile tonight.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a little one at your house this week. Sweet!
ReplyDeleteThis is sweet. I like that instead of focusing on conferences you focus on the heart shots. The words chosen convey so much feeling.
ReplyDeleteLove that you saw them as 'heartshots'. They do make good memories, don't they? Happy Halloween, Deb.
