Today me and my mommy got manicures. I chose light blue- the color of a June sky on a wispy day. We sat in big chairs that you sunk down into, and my mommy got faded-out pink like a desert flower- like a faded hibiscus. Now the sun is fading and we are sitting in the garden together and the fountain is making a sprinkling noise that makes me peaceful and dreamy, and I look at her profile in the fading light and my nails carry the remnants of clouds and ocean skies, just the glow of these, in the gray light.
