[hometext] => My wife and I sat with her mother yesterday, she was packing things away, giving things away. She accepts her condition and is planning for the future. it was a sad scene.
[bodytext] => There is an uneasiness in this room In my mind. Here we three sit at the kitchen table, Your mother, you and I. The rain is strumming a tune on the roof, And beyond the window I watch large warm raindrops Cascading down the wall, each drop chasing another Away down the yard. The gloom of the outside is reflected in this room In corners sufused with greying light And memories that hang heavy in the air. I toss you a glance and my sigh seems to echo And bounce off every corner of this room. Your mother is suprising in her frankness And her total acceptence of the dark years to come. She packs crystal glasses for you to accept In the trueness of the giving. And we sit on in this gloomy unpedictable room, Sipping tea, hearing your mother speak of the past, All three of us alone in a lonliness dedicated to this moment.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
