Contributor Series 10: Silken Rags
White
By Alice Shapiro
I lost the perfect white diamond
from Mother’s hand
in the sea of hardship.
How was it that I saved
the delicate white doily, knit
from Mother’s hand?
Alice Shapiro’s most recent poem to appear here was Once More, published in December 2010 as part of Contributor Series 7: The Confessional Diary of Bone.
Good question. Makes me think how this scenario happens often.
Well, this one makes me think. Love what you accomplished in so few words.
