After School Pick Up

When I see her and

She sees me

She runs

At first dodging

Whirling

Ducking

Even waiting if need be and

Then

Arms outstretched

Braids flying back

Straight back

In tandem

Huge toothy smile on her face

Eyes wide and almost dancing

And

My name on her lips

She runs

Charges really

Right at me and

She sees me and

I see her
