#31: for phoebe

joe quesada thought he knew
what he was talking about
with his “marvel superheroes”

but he never knew my niece

phoebe

last saturday
i got a blow on the head
and she kissed
the pain away

i believed in miracles

the other day
when she cried “darna!”
from her little lips
i envisioned our house
bombed into smithereens!

and dear nosy sisters,
i’ll tell you this now,
in that cry
she showed me
what our mother must’ve
known since we were born

faith like a child

this alone
was worth the powers of
all the marvel superheroes
combined

and mind you
she’s just turning
four!

tomorrow =)

happy birthday phoebe

with love
from tagee
