River

Always she smiles into the river's last bend
her ankles submerged in the water,
the river eases some of her fears
she repeats the promises made to her daughter.

The daughter knows where the sun sets
and that promises disappear in the river's last bend
she has seen her mother smile
reluctant to accept the much overstayed end.
