where

is the pillow

where

I lay my head

where

mother’s head lain

where

mother lay dead

where

the child still searches

where

the old child at that

where

the young mother is

where

now is the laughter

where

now are the tears

where

now went the years

where

the mother was

where

ever

where

after

where

every

where
