Dónall Dempsey - ' ' ' ALWAYS DO
0 Views • Nov 10, 2014
Description
in the library
in & out among
the children’s section
as we
always do.
We laughing silently.
I pull from the shelf
Grimm’s scary stories
but oh
no you!
Then I take out
Anderson’s Tales
but you’re not there.
I create a wall
of empty spaces
& blocks of sunshine.'
Finally find you
smiling behind
An Illustrated Shakespeare
....as always.
We know the end before we begin
but
delight in its playing.
“Here I am! ”
you tell me
& I always try to look amazed.
The look on your three-year old face!
Now you’ve grown
to have kids of your own
I still
pull out An Illustrated Shakespeare
amazed to find you
no longer there.
