back to dodge

the missed

on the way
back
to my childhood
after presents
and too much wine
and I’m on my way
Mom home
a sadness
lingered
of a song that played
dancing
in her motown way
and Christmas laughter,
with that holiday cheer
and
we missed her
again
this year

  1. Tremendous read , our childhood is a treasured memory that should never be locked away ! I recently wrote a book concerning mine and it always is a reminder of great things no matter the struggle we faced
