Lies My Grandma Told

Lies My Grandma Told

A Poem by Amber Nicole

My grandma once told me
it was not okay to cry.
The passing of tears
shall never go by.
The sounding of sobs
should never be heard-
silence as the shepherd
rounds up his herd.

But every word was wrong,
every syllable misplaced.
Then I learned that only
she was defaced.
