FAMILY

 

Once in a while I write a poem about

My ancestor Aaron of Karlin who could,

According to legend, fly or at least float and who

Might have drifted who knows where if his wife

Hadn't put stones in his pocket. Recently,

I've become more interested in his wife who,

Like me, her descendant, couldn't fly

Or if she could didn't make a fuss about it.
