this small box
took the tape
and played the past
when they were living
and breathing and being
and there was a table covered in cloth
and a white-tiered cake
and fresh flowers in a vase
and lots of food and drink
and there were memories
everywhere
60 years’ worth
“Look at Mama and Daddy,
didn’t they look good,” she said.
now, here it is
years later
60 years’ worth
standing where her Mama stood
“Look at Granny and Papa,
don’t they look good.”
