The Little Angel – A Young Child’s Memory of Pain

This little cherub lying on the open book led me to the quiet, wordless grief of the child over the loss of its mother.

The camera sees more than the eye. It wasn’t until years later that I discovered the kneeling child in the photograph.

Cherubs, lying, kneeling, flying

and peeking out in secret wonder

The little cherubs populate the entire house. Where is Mom?
