Ten Line Poem

Ten can be colourful chalk marks, etched into the ground

Tracing out a hopscotch board

A little game we can jump and move in free as birds

Ten can be your birthday

It can be a day to remember -or one you choose to forget

Who cares about ten candles

When the gift at the end of the day flies from the fist of somebody’s anger 

Not celebrating your being at all

That is why now we bake ten beautifully risen cakes for ourselves 

Full of love and celebration for all we were – and who we continue to be.
