Jennifer Colyne Hall - The Blueberry Bush

Early in the mornin' <br /> <br />The sun in her hair <br /> <br />Tiny fingers <br /> <br />Plump blueberries <br /> <br />Shoved in her mouth <br /> <br />as quick as they were picked <br /> <br />Gran looked out <br /> <br />to find blueberries <br /> <br />smeared on her mouth <br /> <br />like paint <br /> <br />Now she sits with a nervous spin <br /> <br />her blonde hair gleaming <br /> <br />from the evening sun <br /> <br />From the window <br /> <br />A hug so tight <br /> <br />A tear fighting to fall <br /> <br />Gran can't speak..... <br /> <br />What happened to my tiny girl <br /> <br />with the top of her head <br /> <br />barely showing over <br /> <br />the blueberry bush<br /><br />Jennifer Colyne Hall<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-blueberry-bush/
