Poetry

 

Teddy

By Tim Lennox


You never know

What you leave behind

when you leave for good.

Eight decades later, she still remembers

the boy in the tree

who fell & died

after so short a life.

Her first brush with death!

Remembered still.

What kind of tree?

A Willow.

Weeping, of course.

As does she, 

reliving her long ago grief.
