Comments by the photographer:

 

The child appeared to feel safe and secure at the cheek of her blind 100 year old gogo (grandmother). A week after the photo was taken her gogo passed away.

This picture inspired me to write the following line

 

"What remains of you

once you are gone?

Nothing but the love

you have broadcast."
