Abandoned
Today
she let herself weep
gently
for a little girl
of five
who had sat
everyday
On the last bench
of her classroom
waiting for her guardian
to pick her up
always an hour later
from the now empty class
which would be teeming with life
just a little while ago..
Today,
she permitted herself
To acknowledge the bravery
Of the little girl
who had refused to cry then.
