Took a tiny paintbrush
To the baby’s face
Traced
her brows
to smooth the worry crease
Between
her eyes
as both
Followed like curious
eclipsed suns
surrounded by shattered blue skies
turning heavenward
It was just
(Like painting vines on a porcelain saucer
Or branches before they become twigs)
Only longer
Lasting.
