Little Things

Sometimes when it strikes
you're sure
there's poetry in it:

an epiphany
with full accompaniment,
all the ahs and amens.

A poem by Anne Carson
about a blue cardigan
was found in its file

behind my eyes,
an important file
in high memory,

when my son toddled
into the room,
eyes wide with discovery,

bringing me
a crayon
and a spoon.

 - about, and for, my beloved and precious Jordan. Thank You, LORD, for my beautiful sons. Edited in 11.15.13.
