Collage

I'm a collage of all I choose
to snip and clip from the world around me.
My yellow dress, blue of my arms,
padded elbows, knees to avoid scrapes,
colors blessed by my choosing.
Leaves and lights, rain from the pyramid
far behind, all conspire to
strengthen, my legs now able
to carry me anywhere I can dream
of going and beyond.
