winter in Boston

the short
years
in Boston are only remembered
now
in black and white.
we looked happy
beside our snowman,
his hat on,
the carrot nose,
buttons for eyes, his
mouth stitched with
with twigs
and twine,
just me and my brother.
the camera
holding
still
in my mother's hands.
she was happy
then,
i hope.
