HELP ME (to remember)

by Olivia Weinkein

oh, jelly bean
i wanna believe
in the easter bunny again.
i wanna remember the wind
and the belief that i could
fly if only i try hard enough.
(i can't believe how easy it is
to forget this stuff) i wanna
look at the sky and count shapes
in the clouds. i wanna make up
silly songs and sing them outloud
nevermind who's listening or who
isn't. i wanna laugh with the birds
and dance with the rain.
oh, jelly bean
jelly bean,
i wanna believe
in the easter bunny again.

Wonderful images swirl around into a desire to return to innocence. Great work.
