Sycamores [312]
Sycamores

Whither old sycamores of my mother's childhood;
         how long since they cut down our elm?
Whither cold tears I spilled hidden in the closet;
         how vast the regrets I still shed?
Whither warm loaves of bread my grandmother baked;
         how long can fragrances linger?
Whither new memories I can never remember;
         how do those sycamores persist?
