old torn love letter
found in my bottom drawer
aah he rests in peace.

I was sad,
I was going to have my one decayed tooth removed,
It was a front tooth,
How would I look before I had another planted,
But just then the sad feeling turned funny sad,
Grandma came into the room,,
Took out her dentures and put them on the table,
She gave me an endearing toothless smile
I hugged her tightly,
Here I was being sad losing one,
And there she was happy without any

In the delivery room,
He took me in his arms
I felt the crisp Bank bills in his shirt pocket,
jingle of coins in his pant pocket
I knew it,
This man was my ATM card.
I snuggled close to him
Gave him a huge smile.

I loved to see my reflection in the mirror,
In my childhood and youth,
After that I looked at it with anxiety,
And then  as I aged I had second thoughts.

He sat outside the party hall,
Ragged  poor and hungry,,
He had not eaten for two days,
Inside he could hear the rich music of clinking of spoons forks and glasses,
Whilst outside the strings of his heart whined for a morsel,
As he doubled with hunger,
A little girl dressed like a fairy stood before him,
She had a plate full of the most delicious food,
It's my birthday today uncle,
It will give me great joy if you will share my happiness with me,
As she handed out the plate to him,
And don't forget to bless me.
