A 2012 Image + A 2024 Poem

________________________________________________________________________________________________



©Oliverio        Eugene, OR

 
I saw her shadow
on a wall
and prayer helped
make me small
so I could crawl
inside her shawl

And so I did...
then we had a kid
so hip and cool
our home is her school
 
She's shy and tall
and hides
inside the wall
 
Inside my head
so it's been said
 
***

    Shadow, shadow on the wall…She’s the fairest one of all.
