One child
Daughter
Mother – Sister

Storyteller

Lives in the make believe
World

Marries the make believe
Men

Ignore their pain
Magic – not there…
Ever suffering…

Ever loving

Giving and taking

Just one
Part…

A piece with
Missing pieces

First of the
Ten

She is a work in progress.


One child
Son
Uncle – Brother

Hand first

Never to be a father

Called and became a Father

Always to be a friend

Actor or Artful
Dodger

Linus without his
Blanket or
Adaptations

Does the dresser
Really speak up in
the end?

Just one
Part…

A piece with missing pieces

Second of the
Ten

He is a work in progress.


One child
Granddaughter
Daughter – Niece

Soho

The mother of the brother
Daughter of non-fathers

With the daughter
-not to be a mother

Her daughter is the sister of the brother
-not to be an uncle
With an uncle for a brother

Off beat poet

Fears growing
Old? Up?

Just one
Part…

A piece with
Missing pieces

Last of the
Ten

She is a work in progress.


She started all this
Then
--She left

Yet it continued
Diseased – Ulcerated
Fragmented

No longer One Holy Church

One family, One God

Strong, faith searching
Together

Forgiving, loving
Healing

Just one
Piece

A part of our missing pieces

The beginning
Of the
Ten.

We are a work
In
Progress.
