Poem by Kim Morrissey

ONE YEAR ON

The reading-corner you made me
is still there

bright red table, red chairs
picture railings, dove-grey stairs

still lit by west light

There are no sounds
in the house I remember

no one calling no one called
no one there

the cedar of the floor still smells sweet

as the light from the window
turns to dark
