Say Grace

bonesnsnowfamily, ghosts, lineage, pandemic, plague, poems, poetry, thanksgiving 3 Comments

this non-gathering

in plague, the living held

at safe distance.

we come to table

surrounded by ghosts

mothers, fathers, brothers

and those beyond, too numerous

for mortal chairs.

from the shadows, a woman’s voice

calls plaintive, soft and sweet

while we the living and the dead

come together

bow heads

say grace
