Women’s Month Poetry: No Looking Back

By Sylvia Hubilla

 

With heart heavy, body weary,

I step out …for the last time.

The metal gate clang shut

on memories left behind.

 

I look up at the weeping sky,

crying for me because

my tears would not come,

even as I quietly said goodbye.

 

I welcome the rain, now pouring,

like some baptism, washing

away the years and tears, soaking

my hair, now gray.

 

(This poem will be part of Sylvia Hubilla’s upcoming book on poetry. She is an English teacher by profession and now lives with her children and grandchildren in Austin, Texas)
