The Red Box
Brothers response to Mothers Love:
And so my sister
you could not allow
my forgetfulness of
words not remembered
Of something you
reminded me years ago
I still ask why
words not remembered
A red box arrives
holding the mothers song
" I love you a bushel and a peck
and a hug around the neck"
Your gray haired brother
weeps at the memory lost
words remembered in
the Spirits moving
And so, its a beginning
I, at one time had
a reference point and
I shall be returned
And so my sister
you could not allow
my forgetfulness of
words not remembered
Of something you
reminded me years ago
I still ask why
words not remembered
A red box arrives
holding the mothers song
" I love you a bushel and a peck
and a hug around the neck"
Your gray haired brother
weeps at the memory lost
words remembered in
the Spirits moving
And so, its a beginning
I, at one time had
a reference point and
I shall be returned
