first autumn morning
the mirror I stare into
shows my father's face.
thinking of folks back home
he stops to buy postcards
...
lightning one candle
with another candle
an evening in spring
sing alleluia cantors
Easter vigil has ended
...

silent steps -
one more candle illuminates
the old chapel
she adjusts her head scarf
secured now with a hairpin
