Honey

Honey


As we embark upon this journey 
Cherish the little things 
Oh, the joy that it brings 
All that remains  
Will stay the same
A still image 
Stands in an invisible frame 
Grandma’s singing behind a wooden podium 
White blouse
Red skirt 
Microphone to her lips 
Her head tilted upward 
Life is in her eyes 
The words are good 
And must come out 
A testimony of bare feet running free
Goods exchanged for honey 
Your memories are your friends
