Single misstep, slide,
like a droplet through a crack
into unknown depths.

New cubby shelving,
vertical toy arrangement,
clutter now cubic.

Small feet want to run,
patter over stones and brush,
learning to balance.

Singular moment,
turns from one mood to the next,

Snowy icy slide,
steering sleds with booted feet,
childlike joyful cheers.

Counting down the day,
waiting for evening to come,
to start over.
