Kangaroo in a putty

In silence I held it to my bare chest
like a little kangaroo in a putty
very delicate when handed over
what was wrapped in my colours.
I only knew little
what she did
till I realized it was more.
I praised not her gift
but what underlain the giving
that has intruded on my innocence
and left in its stead
this endless wonder.
