DREAMS AS POETRY 9<br />
The judge was then presiding<br />
Her father has much wealth<br />
Relatives are blaming him<br />
Him for her poor health<br />
I’m sorry my darling, so sorry<br />
I really had no choice<br />
I look at you and worry<br />
In this I had no voice<br />
My family and her blame me<br />
Now she says divorce<br />
She has lost her baby<br />
Life will take its course<br />
The train moves out, I’m waving<br />
Tears in both our eyes<br />
Both our hearts are aching<br />
Their accusations fly<br />
Next stop there are children<br />
I step off into a field<br />
Covered with round stones of green<br />
So that the sick are healed<br />
Now I hold him as a child<br />
His dark hair, face content<br />
I look softly down and smile<br />
All his tears are spent<br />
Bending down I pick up<br />
A cool green smooth round stone<br />
His little hand is cupped<br />
To hold it as his own<br />
The court scene flashes<br />
Everyone is drunk<br />
Red and angry faces<br />
He’s in his prison bunk
