This is a tender and heartbreaking piece.
The rhythm and rhyme carry the weight of grief so gracefully, and the final stanza is especially powerful. offers such a moving sense of hope and reunion – it’s both sorrowful and comforting at the same time.

It does sound like a town that has been forgotten. You described it well, so sad.

Yes, as sad as it is there was plenty of time to improve things, but…. Thanks Fia.

I lived there for 17 years. But had to move, the police moved out and glitches moved in. They set up tents and overtook the place.

I don’t know whether to laugh or sigh at your comment. It was such a great place at one time. Let’s hope this site is a new and better beginning for most of us from Cafe Town. 🙂 Thanks J.

My dad had to work two jobs as a kid during the depression because his dad had died and he had to support his mom.
This is intense but also beautiful lyrically.
Reminds me of the film The Grapes of Wrath.The Joad family…”I’ll be there Ma, yeah, I’ll be there!”

That’s where the idea came from. I read the book many years ago. Your dad was a courageous person. No wonder why you turned out so well. Thanks for the comment, J.
