Summer Vacation

To all children

They came to visit in July as we had planned.
 The younger aged six, the other a Parelli fan,
 Started most days by playing with a black kitten
 While I prepared good breakfast in the kitchen.
They stayed nine days mostly joyful with a few little cries.
We shopped for bread, pastry, a bathing suit and Crocodiles.
 Today with their grandpa they returned home.
 Sudden sadness fills me as I am left alone.
 Maybe tomorrow I'll receive some news
 To tell me all is well and chase away my blues.
