HAZEL Calumarde - *******life is simple

Mommy Olivia once asked
to her five years old daughter and said,
'Vanessa, what's life? '
Vanessa pout then smiled
and said,
'Mommy I don't know.'
'Is it watermelon? '
'Is it strawberry? '
'Is it potato? '
'I really don't know.'
But Mommy Olivia heared
Vanessa's answer laughed and said back,
'Yeah right.'
'You are really right.'
'Thank you anyway.'
'I now understand.'
That day Mommy Olivia just smiled
and felt better than ever. She knows
Vanessa was right. Life isn't complicated.
Looking at it in the eyes of a child
might help us in the burden
we encounter each day.

Now Mommy Olivia is still as busy as before
but she now knows life is simple.

(the poem is dedicated to Olivia)
