Itsy Bitsy Spider


I would not trade my office space... for anything.  Sure it means that I can*t see most people in the morning.  Small, occasionally loud, voices, perhaps a small meltdown, is not conducive to many people*s therapy office comfort level.  Still... I would not trade my office space... for anything.

The strains
Of Itsy Bitsy Spider
Followed by
This Little Light of Mine
And ended with
Jesus Loves Me
Remind me of the whole
Kit and kaboodle
In the voices of small children.
I sit in the aftermath
Of adult trials and tribulations.
Again the children sing
As they do every day
After lunch
Before they go home
With their particular adult.
I imagine the children hum
Itsy Bitsy Spider
This Little Light of Mine
Jesus Loves Me
To their particular adult companion
In the midst of trials
And tribulations.
I imagine their hum
Reminds the adult
Of child time
Just as it reminds me
