87/365 becca

first baby i ever loved, saw her responding to music when she was 3 months old & thought she was miraculous. taught her to recite whitman's "captain, my captain" when she was 4. she's 16 now, & she gets more & more miraculous every day.

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring: But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead.


I remember being taught those words at such a tender age.It did kinda interest people when I'd stand up at 4 and recite it.

especially keri, and other favorite friends...
