S.O.L. # 11 out of 31
Traces of a Little Boy
lonely Legos
lying near
left behind
pieces
wince in fear
with the raise of a hand
gotta get away
from that man
batman wristband
clasped around
nothing
can't live there
so full of dread
needs a safe place
to lay his head
Wrinkled paper
crayon sketch
hope my love
will always be etched
P.S. My husband and I helped get my niece and her 6 year old boy out of a bad situation. They stayed with us for a couple of months. Then moved on again...leaving a few things behind which evoked some lingering thoughts in my mind.
Powerful piece leave lots of questions in my head!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment Chris. I think I will write a quick P.S. to the blog so others who don't know me will have more of an idea of the situation.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can picture the emotions in you as you find the left over pieces! Hugs!
