Hey there...

Hey there...

When you start
a conversation,
you don't know
where
it my take you.

I started a conversation.
It was work.
6 year old girl and I.
Maths.
She was brilliant.
I told her so.
She knowing numbers
and 
cleverly working out 
hundreds, tens and ones.

She grinned.
She knew she was clever.
I grinned back
proud of her work.

She smiled back.

Tears for me.
I had to finish the session.
Quickly.
No one can see all that emotion...

in a test score.

Hey there..
