Today’s Gift

Senryu poem about a bracelet gift
Original Poetry and Photograph by Leona J. Atkinson ©2014

Today at work, I was given a special gift from a charming little boy about 6 years old.
It is a rubber band bracelet made in multiple colors.  He told me he makes them and sells them for $1.00 each,
but “Today!” he said “This one is free for you!”  How sweet!  I shall treasure it always!

July to me here in the USA is the patriotic month.
As we once again celebrate Independence Day I am reminded of the words of our Pledge of Allegiance to our Flag
