What do you have to say?
As I guessed
Pray!
If I may ask
What is your task?

Of poignant grandmother`s funeral;
The same white van halted by the gate in howling dusk,
We were squeezed at the back with father,his brother-

Holding life
A slice of it
Never simple
Take and eat
Rich in goodness
Full of cheese
Creamed and buttered
Sides unseen

The looming buildings rise, and stand muted,
amid the long rays of the sinking sun.
The subway train rushes its path, rooted,
filled with people, wanting to be someone.

And I heard the rainbow say

Come seek me
Each day
Play and pray
For me to colour you today!

like a loving doe or that in a fawn
we all want to belong
