MY MOTHER'S FLOWER

On these days it's best
to acknowledge the date,
what was and is not, and
then fill your mind with
whatever is at hand,
the world's wars and
its dying multitudes,
the dead words of dead
people, wonders opened
from time or stars,
to forget what should
never be forgotten,
to ease the day that
shouldn't be, for
even the flower left
in your care is dead
for a year and more.
