The itch You are about to scratch
Relax, in fact
Let’s stay with it
Let us revel in it’s wonder
Let’s hear what it has to say
I bet it has a story
About life, joy and laughter
Connection and disappointment
Started a long time ago
Still itching
Wanting to be heard
Yes buddy
I’m here now
Speak with tenderness
With innocence
I’m grateful for You
You are with me
We are together
As I let You do Your thing

Thank You,

Ian Altosaar
