Behind those children playing,
I see a grandmother smiling;
she remembers
the blur of children’s play
but it’s not that memory,
it’s their place in her heart.
These moments of happiness:
she has seen them before,
knows the thin bone china
they’re made of;
her smiles are carefree
as the children
but are of this moment;
she has lived through many years.
