Fragile. color pencil sketch ~ Michael Douglas Jones
Glass ornaments,
fragile, forgotten,
break so easily,
carelessly left
clinging
to the Christmas Tree.
Children,
fragile, forgotten,
break so easily,
carelessly left
clinging
to the Family Tree.

the broken bits
beneath
the presents;
their presence
forgotten.
the broken bits of the past must always be swept under the rug of the present.

Wow, this is so true and powerful. Having been swept under the present myself for a long time I feel this post right in the center of my gut.
