Lament the mother


 Lament the mother


Whose sons do not come

To serve her breakfast in bed

Burnt toast and scrambled egg

No hand scribbled card written

Colored with greatest care

Silence from afar deafening

She begins anew the search for sons

Cats, dogs, chickens, ducks trying

Unable to silence the inner crying.
