in the rifted rock

grand children’s love billows 
through iPhone speakers 
a sung embrace of closeness 

mother daughter hands clenched on lap 
failing ears can just make it out 
this song for the ages aged 

seeking rest from care and pain and turmoil 
my moist eyes lower to the floor 
where slippered foot taps the beat
