Autumn Rose Wood Poet Free verse

Music To Her Ears

Headphones sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother smiles as she listens as her child sings

Needle sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother swallows tears as she watches as her child winces

Burden sizes too big
For the little girl in red
Mother applaudes as her daughter, her child, bravely bears all

Remission
Victory
A cure
