Ku Czci Babci Mej

My Grandma and I

My Grandma and I in common we had
A previously indiscernible and invisible thread

Who would have thought when her heart made her dead
I’d be taking the challenge to continue the thread

Of weaving in rhyme bits and pieces around
The people and stories I face on the ground

The ground being taken in a broad sort of sense
Including virtual - not just touchable intense

That’s how it’s emerged, I’m pretty convinced,
Spurned on by love and hope she so sadly missed

The love of her Brother so cruelly taken
By the swine of Katyn, by commies partaken

She already gave up her own studies for them
Dionizy and Jerzy – the other one’s name

Cometh the war with Dyzio away
She will never properly recover from pain

Giving up poetry and innocent laughter
In view of befallen, shattering disaster

Committing her life entirely to offspring
Knew how to unfold and keep running the string

Sad as she was deep in her soul
Knew how to be a marvellous Pole

She wrote in her twenties, I in my fifties
Knitting and weaving my own little ditties

In different abodes and in different language
Hoping it’s not just any old garbage

Rhythm in dance, rhythm with word
Spiced and enriched by sharp lemon curd

Guided by rhythm my poetic musings
Don’t always emerge as spontaneous oozings

Delighted I am the biology strain
Passed on to me has not died in vain

Uncovered by love I missed long ago
Love is an art allowing to glow

Amen!
