Bearded Ballads 9/30: Seaworthy

Tears flow
unbidden,
welling from that
secret place
which has long since
been barren.

Knitting together
a family, so tight
so steadfast in their faith
their love,
seams
are hard to see.

This blanket
covers us so
but are tiny toes
from memory
and the cold
peeking out.
