Antonia Clark Quotes

Amends

Regret Lingers, Niggles. Yellow Lilies
on The Table, Gone Brown In The Vase.
The Garden We Talk About, Endlessly,
but Never Begin, Deterred By Tough Sod.

On The Edge Of The Walk, The Wheelbarrow
full Of Stones Waits Like An Undelivered
apology. Within, The Floor Needs Scrubbing
and Only Hands And Knees Will Do The Job.

I Know That Forgiveness Is A Simple Meal -
a Salad, A Boiled Potato, A Glass Of Tea.
Easy To Prepare, To Offer. That The Silence
afterward Will Satisfy, Perhaps Even Nourish.
