I Have Four Children
(Iraq, 2009)

Talker-Healer, Beauty-Maker,
Piano-Player, Earth-Shaker;
Leader, Reconciler,
Etch-a-Sketcher, Praise-Compiler;
Caregiver and Traveler,
Move-Maker, Song-Writer;
Analyzer, Palletizer,
Synthesizer, Equalizer.
Each is a child of mine so able,
It’s their parents who are less than stable!
