tohubohu.
today, someone decided
to quietly dump every single puzzle out onto the floor
mix the pieces together
then head up to the loft to play.

at the moment of discovery

and with it will come a new word.

messy.
once the rain came
and the temperature rose by 50 degrees
and the snow and ice turned
to slush, and mud, and dirty water
and the discovery of this
brought such a level of joy and celebration
to the sandbox
that it was immeasurable.
