"Sestina" by Elizabeth Bishop
This poem narrates Bishop’s personal experience. Her father passed away during her childhood, and her mother never recovered from a mental breakdown. Because of this, Bishop was raised by extended family members for many years.
The grandmother in the poem feels sorrow because of these circumstances and the child's innocence, but she conceals her grief by laughing and speaking to the child.
"reading the jokes from the almanac,
laughing and talking to hide her tears."
