mother stands alone
before our old house
in the gathering dusk
I look back at her
in a winter dream
German Translation
Mutter steht allein
vor unserem alten Haus
in zunehmender Dunkelheit
sehe ich mich nach ihr um
in einem Wintertraum
Chrysanthemum, October 2017

-
we don’t need the Amaretto
your mouth
hint of smoke
yet sweet as the water
of mountain rivers
