Four Years Old
#20

Your last stanza is beautiful.  I feel I'm there in the kitchen and I can sense my mother's motions and the "green" that she saves for the surface.  I also loved the heaviness of the playground lifting children on shoulders.  I would work with the baton bit, maybe make it more of a metaphor, the wording just feels slightly off.  I am also a little unsure of the message.  I want to know more about the brother.  By the end I felt like I was in a daze, rightfully so, but why?  Overall I loved the airiness of it.
