hometown visit
the family tombstone
moss covered now
hometown visit
the family tombstone
moss covered now
chicken broth
six years old
and sick again
charity bag
giving away
the old me
the smell of popcorn
at the cinema
a child again
the steady flickers
of prayer candles
funeral mass
Mother’s day
wearing the ring
she left me
family attic
memories of childhood
covered in dust
winter sun
the dusty patch
where your chair once stood
New Year’s eve
closing the door
on the past
heavy snow
taking the path
my father once took
