Mother's Day
3
springs running the sisters
planted
a dogwood in the yard
and
3 summers running it died barren
The
4th spring they gave her red
and
white cut flowers meant to die
Today
the koi have left L.A.
They
are coming north in tanks
When
they come they will have come to heal
her
mind. 50 summers on
the
sisters truck solely in the perishable.
