All over a family

I looked, standing

in front of his little garden.

He looked.

Then, I arrived.

We borrowed

a new harvest.

Books, clothes,

lemonade, food and silence.

Gifts.

A family member,

he showed and told,

had, sort of, enlightened eyes.

My father gave me another book.

It takes but it gives,

more than you ask.
