The middle room
With dimming glittering light
of a pale blue hue
pastel pink, green bedsheet
covers the queen size mahogany bed
Powder turquoise curtain drapes a broom like trimming
sweeping, sweeping the hardwood floor
An elderly woman rebuking eyes
stares through a fragile picture frame
WATCHING
A young girl with company
A quiet song sings in silent tongue
Mattress churning turning
midnight light cat fight
purring purring to a hush
Pennies shillings rattling like a snake
falls to the ground
And the elderly woman rebuking eyes
makes the young one cry
