my niece is forty years old
a lady by all means
soft spoken, smart and
a lawyer

defending the poor and
the unhappy

she is not poor but i am
definite
about the second

i introduced her to a pilot
forty like her and rich and
a bachelor and unhappy too

i make them meet and let
them talk
i hope they can agree
about love and
happiness and family
and

dream that they too
can have that sacrament
of marriage

takes time, i suppose
who knows? God works
miracles

it's been long and i am tired
waiting
and there seems to be nothing
happening at all

these are the busy people
searching
and wanting to find
someone

to love and be loved
but it seems that it has nothing
to do with fertility

but only with futility and now
i have decided
that for me to be happy
i simply have to let them be

i shake my head. Dust off my feet.
i keep reading a book.

and true to what i hear
to be happy, i should not have cared.
