Something To Hold Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Tripping along roads of life, always looking for something
to hold in treasured memories, hoping they will last through-
out their lives.

No one tarrying longer than they have to, wanting to get back
home to their comfort and safety, not wanting to go out again
into the world because of all the issues standing out, waiting
to hurt and maim others.

Treasuring their little spaces in corners of their living rooms,
praying that they can continue to stay where they are.
