Women In My Family
Women in my family caused
me to glance a spell and while paused,
preferred my being warmly swathed,
seek cause and effect lasts uncaused.
I had a mom and sisters -- three,
brought cheers and tears, now yearningly,
their laughter echoes oh so sweet,
their smiles made my days all complete,
mom cleans, they played, I play solo,
outhouse chase I, critters go bye,
my turn waits I, was a slow go,
held the flashlight as I stood by,
beauty and taste e'er inherent,
their love and mine, so transparent.
