and her children climbed
and played
on the fallen tree limbs.
she remembered the old photo
on her mother's dresser.
she remembered the story her
mother told her, holding back
tears, as this was the only photo
she had left.
it wasn't much of a photo, black
and white, torn around the edges
and bent just slightly in the
middle. there was shaky
handwriting on the back that
read, "joe, 1932".
joe a hardworking family man,
sitting with coworkers on a
skyscraper beam, eating his
lunch. she laughed as her mind
recreated this photo, and then
yelled, "lunch" as she threw her
children peanut butter and jelly
sandwiches.
