Poetry
The Boy and His Grammaw
by Timmy McWhirter, age 12
Timmy McWhirter
Laughing and smiling
And sitting and hugging
A dirty little boy and
A graying woman are
Sitting near a dingy trailer.
Rough steps and an old bike
Rusting before their eyes
Yet their smiles
Can dazzle even
This blank scene . . .
