The Children Needs New Clothing Poem by Martin Lochner

The Children Needs New Clothing



Shoulder blades tightens
as a pair of pliers straightens a laundry line

A quiver runs down his cold spine
as patched linen hangs out to dry

Waiting for the south easter
the north wind comes with rain

Flooding loosens the anchors
the line sags and he frowns
