The
Button Jar
(Mom's
collection)

Posey
Red,
white, blue, and green,
Opal,
oval, and round mostly.
From
shirts, skirts, suits, and dresses,
Multi-colored
beads,
A
mysterious collection.
They
clink and clatter on the sides of the glass,
Some
old, some new,
Even
antiques perhaps.
Each
so different,
They
hold my attention.
Poured
out into my hands,
Seem
like glassy confections.
