where is she?

her husband went cheap
on my mother's burial.

pinching the penny hard,

and now we can't find
where she lies.

resting at last.
no marker, no stone,

no bench to sit beside.
i can almost

hear her laughing
as we wander

the green hills.

still no visitors on sunday,
she grins and sighs.
