by Robert Kingston

Not yet Spring
the neighbour's ball still
in the garden

pumpkin shapes
a child grinds out
a new tooth

snow angels
in the afternoon sun
mothers red face

Remembrance day -
polishing the buttons
on an old suit

between leaves
one story
of father's past

  2. Don't fully understand them but appreciate the feeling they give. Very evocative.
