uganda snapshot - one

Image may contain: 5 people
grinning orphan boy, 11,
clad in a
royal blue braces by dr. joe
soccer jersey
and
wearing mismatched flip flops
(one black, one pink)
looks over my shoulder as i swipe through
home
pictures
i show him north carolina in winter
with its
leafless trees
and
snow on the ground
and
when i tell him that in
october, november, december, january, february, march and april
no corn grows,
solemnity
sits
on
his

face
