a child.

trying to word something i visioned as a wordless presentation....


young couple
so much in love!
come together, holding together a flower.

the couple moving gently in circles.
love soars, hands join, flower drops. floats gently down to the ground.
transforms into this beautiful little girl. who unfolds like a flower blooming.
the circles continue, the smiling scared child looks up with hope....reaches out to them.

the couple smiles and start to leave hands.

they continue to go in circles....
the hands apart, now changing into hand gestures....questioning, accusing....
the child is still holding out the arms, hoping to reach the couple,

the circles are faster.
teh hand gestures more ferocious.
the child's strecthed out arms begin to recline.

they recline.

the child starts reclining into a fold. covering her self, burying her face into her hands, sitting on her knees.
the coup;e who are still yelling and violently gesturing, come to a sudden halt.
they look down. now a flower. a squelched one.
