I Come Home

To those who claim me
Despite my terrible beauty and flaws
To those who put toast & persimmons
Into my mouth
Who are pinion and wire
Unending string for my kite
I come home to those I call family
They flood
My otherwise barren garden
Render it cyclamen pink

I Come Home

To those who claim me
Despite my terrible beauty and flaws
To those who put toast & persimmons
Into my mouth
Who are pinion and wire
Unending string for my kite
I come home to those I call family
They flood
My otherwise barren garden
Render it cyclamen pink

A.E. Swaney, 53
