they tell me
my mother has
a lovely smile
when words turn
to mush and
the past departs
when schoolyard bullies
tweet nuclear taunts
my broken soul
remembers just how
lovely it is –
my mother’s smile

poetry I have written
they tell me
my mother has
a lovely smile
when words turn
to mush and
the past departs
when schoolyard bullies
tweet nuclear taunts
my broken soul
remembers just how
lovely it is –
my mother’s smile
