Grandma

Through the willows of winter and the spirits of spring

Into your eyes where the moonlight sings

Through sorrows and sunsets and sounds of psalms

Through the slow and steady whisper of waves

To the shivering shadows and beginnings of days

You shine golden and glow even grey

As silhouettes swim in your infinite brain

Flashes of weary worries have ceased

You’re free to fly the sky and fall with the leaves
