waterford fronts

the waterford front
a three year old
bright sunday best
happy
saw me
slowed
concerned
as they do
I smiled
she smiled
skipped past

granddad
worn tiger
followed
this was no duty

I’d missed the galway train
go to waterford it’s pretty
the ticket girl had said
the locals         amused
you know her loyalty
but she’d a point

these are daughters
I’d like that
