    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

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
