I want to spread out my arms over the... everything.
I want to spread out my arms
and reach down into anything.
I want to put my hands into the mud.
I want to do it too.
I want to push it around,
I want to sculpt with my thumb.
I want to shape it all,
Shape it as my heart wills.
I want to put very detail in.
I want to add colour to my mud,
I want to pour my life into it.
I want to make it everything I can.
If I ever finish,
putting my all into a doll,
I want to stand it up.
Stand up on your own feet.
I want my creation to smile.
I want my creation to smile at me,
and in awe of everything,
give me a hug and say,
"Thank you Mommy."
I don't want to stop at words.
I want to create, too.
I want to spread out my arms
and reach down into anything.
I want to put my hands into the mud.
I want to do it too.
I want to push it around,
I want to sculpt with my thumb.
I want to shape it all,
Shape it as my heart wills.
I want to put very detail in.
I want to add colour to my mud,
I want to pour my life into it.
I want to make it everything I can.
If I ever finish,
putting my all into a doll,
I want to stand it up.
Stand up on your own feet.
I want my creation to smile.
I want my creation to smile at me,
and in awe of everything,
give me a hug and say,
"Thank you Mommy."
I don't want to stop at words.
I want to create, too.
