By Merle Feld
The night is so dark
and I am afraid. 
I see nothing, smell nothing, 
the only reality - 
I am holding my mother's hand. 
And as we walk
I hear the sounds 
of a multitude in motion - 
in front, behind, 
all around,
a multitude in motion. 
I have no thought of tomorrow,
now, in the darkness, 
there is only motion
and my mother's hand.
