Conditioned to Play

Watering Can playground - Beacon Hill Park
Sunshine on dust motes  
Colouring books and paper dolls
Magenta, mustard and azure blue
Cinnamon, lime green and fuchsia
Bare feet swinging, toes finding wooden rungs 
Paper dolls model latest designs
Scissors trim edges of new gowns
Meadowlarks harmonize with killdeers
Call to play outside breaks the spell
A challenge to colour or play in sunshine

“Home is where you were conditioned.”
~ Darnell Lamont Walker
