I can recall
seeing my great grandmother
Isabella
just one time
Lying in an iron bed
her face
tired and care worn
her hair
whispy and white
I was a child
and she was ancient
What had I to do with her?
I have an old
and faded picture
of my mother
eight years old
It looks just like my daughter
who looks just like me
