Today's blog is a little different. I wrote a poem. I haven't written a poem in a long time. But with Easter weekend combining with getting my MIL out for a walk and that all intersecting with a line-up of children waiting for a giant Easter Bunny. Ma D was enthralled. And, I was inspired.
Mortal Ties
Renewal
Risen
The heart of Christianity
Married up to an Easter bunny
Blue jeans, a man’s shoulders and a fuzzy rabbit-like mask
A string of excited children
wait
The Easter Bunny
Stomps through fake spring flowers
taking his oversized place
seated for the camera
A string of excited children
wait
She smiles as she watches
Her skin crepe-like
sagging
She shifts for a better view
Her knees aching
As she watches
Loving the children
And knowing that
Time waits for no mortal
And still
she watches
