How was your day today
she asked eager to know
his feelings and thoughts
Ice caps!
He exclaimed
trying to remember
the name of the crystal candied mountain
and silvery blue lake
flowing like a fountain
from the white tipped wintery picture
he had seen earlier that day
Was it fun to see your friends
and be back at school again?
What did everyone say?
Glacier!
He proclaimed
dipping his finger
into the chilled water
His eyes following
the circular hypnotic motion
like a mini cyclonic ocean
Pausing only to
place the cup to his lips
He quietly mumbled
Yes Mom
I'm in third grade now
I'm feeling lots of emotions
