• Empty

Even when freshly washed and relieved of all obvious confections, children tend to be sticky. ~Fran Lebowitz

A couple toddlers
Scattered Lego Blocks on floor
Bare feet, enough said
•
A cup of coffee
My solace from the terrors
Until they want sips
•
Where is your Mommy?
No, really. She should be here.
Don't giggle at me.
•
What's that smell? Who pooped?!!
Ok, you're cute again, sigh.
Wipes off sticky kiss
•
Finally Mommy's here
She smells of Calgon, she beams
I foresee murder
•
Held up in traffic?
You don't say. Calgon exhaust?
Wow. Your nails look nice.
•
Did them in the car?
In traffic? You don't say. Pfft.
A French Manicure??!!
•
Conspiracy looms
I've been taken for a ride
But revenge is mine
•
They head out the door
I'm sorry, they wouldn't nap.
Her face was priceless
•
I close the door. AH!
The debris can wait. Listen.
The sound of empty

For: One Single Impression - Empty

No mandala with this one. I was feeling goofy :)
