A woman child's whisper.
My childhood has left me with bound feet.
I've grown wrong.
Walking, keeping balance, not falling is unnatural.
I stand at the edge of the playground
Smiling
Looking busy.
One day these bound feet will grow wings.
I've grown wrong.
Walking, keeping balance, not falling is unnatural.
I stand at the edge of the playground
Smiling
Looking busy.
One day these bound feet will grow wings.

30 Days of Me - Day 24
A letter to your parents:
Here's a poem instead.
Whakapapa - By Apirana Taylor
I was am
and
will be
alive
growing
bearing fruit
living
dying
in you
and me
I am
the
family tree
