In her eighties,
this old frail woman
has survived a stroke,
her body shortened
and she is stooped.
Two rows of pearls glow
over her navy blouse.
While quietly -
her six foot son,
once a baby in her arms,
now a father -
takes her by the hand
and walks to the door
of her home
where I click the camera
capturing a moment
in a photograph,
before the final lunch
of a Mother with her family.
