She Wore Size 5

her feet were soft and tender
upon my spine of turbulent retraction
she never felt the least vindictive,
in her step, or in being a woman

she wouldn't guess it through
she knew what she needed to know
her academics were diverse in nature.
girls of lesser distinction
were among her favorites

...so full of truth and wisdom

easing over to family life was
a source of neglect she chose to ignore
she would say to me, “Dannyboy,
to get what you want, you gotta
leave your comfort zone and the
conformity that resides within it"

she took her shoes off for me
and if I live to be a hundred,

…I'll never forget that

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".

Mmmm . . . I'll just bet you never forgot that, Ticklefingers.

"easing over to family life was

leave your comfort zone and the
conformity that resides within it"

Amazing . . .
