Dishes

A Poem by Tenten

4 sets of dishes

A testament to the lives

The men, the houses

The expectations

Black and blue stains

For welcome home

Sentiments in a thin wall apartment

Christmas plates breaking

Apple pictures

To give that new

New life feel

To striking red

In sizes, cups, bowls

Celebrating a new man

A new life,

A second chance at flawed

Expected happiness

4 sets of dishes

A testament to the lives

The men, the houses

The expectations

resonant poetry....alluding to so much that is unsaid...The life on the other side of the words just vibrates. Well done.
