The sound of children singing

Dogs bathing in a sunbeam

Toddler girls in jumpers with striped leggings

Baby birds in a nest

Eating tomatoes fresh off the vine

Peonies the day before they fully bloom

Stepping out of a cold building into the sunlight

The moment right before the curtain opens on a broadway show

My grandmother’s voice when she discovers it’s me on the telephone

High school football games – and all that goes with them –
crisp fall evenings, marching bands, cheerleaders, proud parents

warmly, Laura
