Five Minutes

Now is not the time to panic.

Take a deep breath.

Stay calm.

A three year old girl

Whispers

"Hi"

To me,

Before she runs,

Barefoot,

To the other end

Of the library.

I'd give

Whatever is left of my

Broken, battered soul

To have just

Five minutes

Of that little girl's

Peace

Of

Mind.
