"....when he floats odd ribbons
of greeting..."

Bob Sward's Writer's Friendship Series
Son
He acquires a wheel, throws
She'll attend when
past day's blue, knuckle memory
as clouds in her sky
his own bowl, plays his theme
with spoons on its rim.
he floats odd ribbons
of greeting, when earth turns
into a bowl, fire and glaze it,
play her own tune
race only for her. At night
they'll watch the same stars.
