Eternal Spring
She came to me with only a blanket and one sock. Her blue eyes, big and round as blueberries, were open wide; her hair, a tangle of soft brown brush twisting in a wild halo above her soft cheeks. She knew nothing of me, and I knew only her name, but she became mine that afternoon. June. That was her name, and she embodied that sweet high heat, that burst of fragrant color in the garden, that blinding sparkle off the lake. She was my reminder of the beauty and hopefulness that June always brought me. She came into my life with only a blanket and one sock. But she brought eternal spring within her.
