I Hope That You'Re Somewhere

I hope that you're somewhere a daughter can find you I hope that it's near enough, warm enough, sweeter these nights I could handle with you as my candle I hope that your laugh still leaves ripples behind you so I can still feel them whenever it's raining and follow the path that had always aligned you with all mighty mothers with such mighty shoulders and God, how the weight of it all can remind you that motherhood dwells in the wings of the theater with you as my candle these nights I could handle I'll find my own light although no flame outshined you 5/10/2021 A new Abracadabra poem Poetry Contest Sponsored by Emile Pinet
