Found Poem

We buried her three days ago
A little life with dried tubers
On the seventh day the child died
The house is so quiet now
But where is Sonia?

Dream that my little baby came to life again
And that we rubbed it before the fire
And it lived. Awake and find no baby
Why should I fast? Because God so loved the world,
I shall go to him, but he will not return to me.
