Anticipation
Mother and child waving
goodnight to expecting
embrace of reddish dusk
playful companions of the
day’s tired steps toward
bed, anticipating mother
witnesses a balance in
posture, natural scimitars
outlining benevolence and
endearment in yearning
a few crumbs yet enjoyed
to the fullest meaning in
simplicity of happiness in
arms of poetry surrounding
