tom was born in 1942
with eyes of blue
and the doctors said
that his birth was far too fast
his heart stopped twice
but yet he survived
as he took his first breath
his mother took her last
and his father knew that he wasn't to blame
but he never quite looked at tom the same
after that
and he rarely spoke about her
but when he did
he said
your mother used to say this"
