mother

Posted April 9th, 2008 by joyce

snow plowed in pale peaks
drifts isolate our small home
mother sits alone
she awaits school day's ending
the bus brings back the sunlight

these poems are taken from memory. I used to spend time with my mother after school in the snowy north. She must have been very lonely in the wintertime. Thanks again for reading and commenting.
