My Mothers Kitchen
dripping tap in an empty sink
passing away the hours
the table where she always sat
naked without a cloth
the stove well used
now forgotten
grown cold with time
white china cups on a dusty shelf
waiting to be filled again
and slowly sipped
a closed door
can't hold back the memories
in my mothers kitchen
