place
my favorite cat's eye marble
in the center
of the dirt drawn circle.
it was too risky,
too much of a gamble to lose
what was so important
to me.
the emerald
green inside the glass.
the perfect beauty of it,
round and smooth.
it was the one they all
wanted,
the one i kept
and still have. safe in
my drawer
with other things,
like your photograph,
and things i love best.
