mama hangs on tight
as she
takes her
baby chicks
off to
master
their moves
their kicks
their spins
their control
as they
jump and skip
through the city
over and under
everything
in their way
and
they can’t wait
to
unleash their power
so much energy
harnessed here
—
the speed of the boss is the speed of the team.

Sometimes that spontaneity is the most fun to observe in the moment – figures you would see it and write something so cute about it 🙂

Its very well written and reminds me of some of my own memories. Not me galumphing round the floor, but my girls taking ballet lessons when they were very small.
