This small boy sinks comfortably in her lap
So content to sit and be held
She is blind and deaf and yet her senses have come vividly alive.
As she drinks in the smell of his skin,
She is aware of herself as a young mother and the
Generations melt away.
In her mind, in the words of the Spirit,
She listens to her 97 years of life
Realizes she has been around the world and back
... Yet finds herself where she started
Holding on tight to life
... Taking her first breath
And strangely enough she sees
Her future in her arms.
