a front page heart – February 2

2.2.2015

picture in the paper

front page success

overnight and years

in the committing

 

beloved one putting

herself out there

for the sake of

her cares

 

on behalf of the rest

of us who listen

and appreciate

her insight

 

for the grand mothers

and daughters

and beloveds and

losts

 

that she names

with their hearts

in her hand

for command.
