SHELLEY AND THE BUS
When you were in utero,
We swam with the dolphin, Shelley.
We had felt her sonar calling.
She connected with you
In your mother's body,
Your first friend.
~•~
There is a bus
Speeding through
Our atmosphere
To connect with your body-
Can I protect you from it
When the time comes?

Wow! This kind of comment makes me ridiculously happy. Thank you for the thought-provoking prompt! I went through a couple versions of this before I arrived at what it is.
