Minion Ball

By John I. Blair 

 

A small clear ball
Rests on my desk
For me to see.

Within it floats
A funky figure
Of a yellow minion

On holiday,
Wearing sunglasses
And a pool ring,

A bow tied in its hair.
It’s a gift to me
From my dear granddaughter

And every time
I look, I smile
Because it makes me think

Of my love for her
And how she’s always in my life
Even when she isn’t here.
