What Ears?


She stood in the shallows, a half-smile
on lips longing to burst into full-
blown shrieks and peals of mirth but guile
waves a velveteen hand and says “Pull
the other one – it has bells on it
and she nods and smile behind tears
of mirth and answers, her face lit
with innocence of babes: “What ears?”
