summer afternoon in
grandmother’s garden
follow sunlit pathway
strawberry blonde girl
clutches watering can
to sprinkle flowers
her smile like daisies
picked by chubby fingers
her cheeks reflect color
of bright hair bow and
bold rose briar blooms
garden and granddaughter
both cultivated, well-groomed
portrait of fresh youth
wholesome in nurture
Girl with Watering Can – Renoir
