Poems
Dec 2013
Follow The Leader
Two years old and she stared at the stains in the snow,
Engaged by the diamond flame
And bewildered by beauty that falls from the sky
Five years old and she still didn’t know
How to pronounce her brother’s name
And didn’t until the day that he died
Seven years old and left to cope
With a flame of her own—inside
Seven years old and empty of hope
Until the day that she died
