Buried Treasure

It's not so much pirate's booty
As it is a baby bootie,
Accidentally discovered,
Uncovered while searching
For a blanket for the houseguest
Who is waiting in the guest room
Getting colder. And you sit,
Holding a baby bootie, the
Blanket forgotten on the floor,
Fingers burnishing this gem,
Working as they did years ago,
Tucking soft pink feet and tiny toes
Into the most precious booty on earth.

  1. Ugh, I am in a stupid emotional tired mood and I had to get all dumb and CRY over this.

    But it was beautiful. *wipes tears*

    Also I do not know why it is forcing me to comment as Courtney but you know who I am.

Comments are always welcome, unless you are going to be mean, in which case you can go straight to hell.

Please leave at least some form of name so I don't get all paranoid and think you are a stalker or my mother.
