Like a Faithful Lassie - a Poem for The Sunday Muse

 

     The Carrier 

Like the carrier of Cinderella's shoe 

She hoped and hoped to find its wearer 

Always cheerful and patient expecting 

Expecting to find and see a miracle 

Thanking God and thanking man and she waits 

She'll help with your dirty stuff and the hard 

Willing but hardly able for some 

Carry the groceries home take nary a bite 

Wonder, worry, for the owner of the shoe 

Carries always the shoe in her hands and heart 

She's the one I married and now you'll know 

Know why I love her so, ever, forever
