warmth
April 21, 2015
laugh lines and wrinkles reside
with crow’s feet and sun spots beside
your skin serves as their home
and your heartbeat a metronome
faded scars and tainted eyes
crackled lips released of lies
now sitting on a rocking chair
contemplating your last breath of air
you feel the sun rays touch your cheeks
and the warmth of your grandson of two weeks
