the child did ask
their elder, a task
to the death of their parent
who has gone too long in silence
...
takes me through
and through
the paths of untrodden
ways besides
...
where must you found
if all traces
are proud
to shadow you?
...
my ear snakes through
to hear from a distance
like a distant dreamer,
the night is quite
...
i lowered her lashes
until they almost
cuddled her cheeks
and slowly moved my ashes
...
she is my sunshine
she is a true love child
the one that brings me a smile
so natural than wild,
...
