Loneliness slips through these faded floorboards.
I hope that it never comes back.
Somehow your Mother Maybelle voice seeps into the
room and then into my skin.
You sing an old tune – one that is close to your
heart and one that you tried to teach me many
times but that I never quite learned.
Perhaps I shall plant roses and lilies come springtime.
Would you like that?
