Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all of the #Great and #Grandmothers, #Mothers, #Aunts, #Nieces, #Daughters, #Stepmoms, #Stepdaughters and yes, #Transwomen out there. Wherever you are, whatever you do, no matter your background or social status. You are loved and appreciated.
Chasms - a poetry collection by Carmella de Keyser. Reflections - a poem within, an early version of this poem first appeared in Authora Australis magazine.
REFLECTIONS-a poem I wrote based upon a memory of facing my grandmother while she was steeped in sunlight & I was drenched in shade. Different borders between my grandmother & I, but we bridged the gap well.🩶
