A childhood memory

I have remembered a pale day

was sealed by the gray clouds

in great fear the small feet walking slowly

toward the door of home

I have remembered there was a silence in heart

framed the tears

choked a cry

in the dark kitchen

the baleful eyes with inexplicable resentments engraved the memory

and there was an angel weeping at the scene

I see many going through that day

still

I see a small bird shivering in its standing

with trembling wings there is no way out of this fate

can blood cease that anger?

and the days repeating

Thus, a sense of  pain remains

and an angry heart has nurtured

many have to learn to f & f  ( forget and forgive )

but some barely found the path

A beast might bite its baby

so as a guilty man did to his little son
