Epiphany

Scarce sweets and treats of penny pinching love,
hesitant rewards from bare wallets.
Small hands extended, always unaware,
worry hidden behind smiling facades.

Devistation smothered in manilla
lurked in unseen corners,
dreading the coming month of
choking tension and pasted happiness.

Tiny bodies grow up and soon realize
the fights of constant worry come from
the Lack-of and not the Abundance.
