Marco! Polo! Marco! Polo! Marco! Polo! Incessantly. Slick floors water stained carpets soggy clothes mountains of laundry. Skimming, vacuuming testing and adjusting, endless work. This is the price, but a cost gladly borne, to see the smiles, hear the laughter, feel the joy, of the children in my pool. Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. |

I remember many days in the pool, at the lake or at the beach. It was fun playing Marco Polo. I loved this read. Cold hands means a warm heart |

 Enjoyed this look into simple pleasures You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL |
