trembling,
her hands are trembling.
it cannot hold the pen.
it starts to scribble.
her mind wants it to stop,
but it can't.
it has its own mind.
it danced the pen;
the paper became
a dance floor.
and then it stopped.
and revealed something;
a figure;
a child.
it was the owner of the hand
who had rivers in her eyes
that fed the flowers.
