IN MEMORY OF THE CHILDREN, FAMILIES AND STAFF OF NEWTOWN, CT.
Trembling hands, shooting
Children cowering, crying
I pray for time, peace.
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************
Life, untangling
taut, rope fraying, neon bright
Seen by only one.
*****
I bounce in freedom
Gold coins fall into my hands
Independent me.
*****
Young lovers twisted
shiny, sparkling, delighted
Old age settles in.
*****
Sparkling green eyes flirt
my head tossed back with laughter
Looking back in time.
