73 stitches cast on for the button band.
\nSo much for the ceasefire.
\nK four rows.<\/p>\n
On the second the camera crew
\nchooses a Medium shot.
\nA strange and unnatural angle,
\na Bird’s-eye view, looking down
\non the action, making it seem insignificant
\nand ant-like.<\/p>\n
And there you are. The top of your
\nsmall sweet head
\nunearthed.<\/p>\n
From my God-like angle digging figures
\nstruggle to bring you out,
\nto clear the bomb-bleached dust and rubble
\nfrom your face.<\/p>\n
Then gently, oh so gently, lift you
\ninto the Love of strong arms and gazes.<\/p>\n
Every man there wants to hold you close.<\/p>\n
You pass me in a Close-up view,
\nyour ashen head buried in his warm neck.
\nThe Long-distance shot rushing you to safety.
\nand you are gone.<\/p>\n
I can’t follow, darling little man, but
\nyou are our child.
\nSee this coat to keep you warm…
\nwith hearts for buttons.<\/p>\n
