A Child’s Funeral
Nothing is sadder
Than a child’s funeral
Winter’s emptiness
It’s been several months since we buried my friend’s son. It was a wretched, painful day. I never want to feel that way again. Sadly, the odds are against me.

Carrying a water bucket
Flicking water from
Her fingers
A baptism

Joyous children around me
Love’s capacity
