Her name was Sienna born the first day of Autumn maple leaves rustled in the wind and to her mothers surprise she had caramel eyes not blue like the powder within the sky Innocent eyes, the shade of autumn nutmeg and ginger and a dash of copper and gold Sienna was her name beautiful as a grande dame robins sang in a nest of harmony Her biological father she never knew his eyes caramel not blue was just a brief starry eyed encounter her mothers husband just smiled he thought for a while and remembered her best friend Kate a distant sultry affair in his glove compartment, her lace underwear They welcomed their sweet Sienna a gift they would both share into the forgiving, brisk autumn air. Every child is an artist. The challenge is to remain an artist once he grows up. Pablo Picasso [This message has been edited by Victoria (edited 10-04-2001).] |

This is the first one I've read of your poems, but it will not be the last. What a truthful sounding tale, one for a real Sienna to fall back on someday. I love the way you used color to color the emotional layers in this. |
