My father was born in Rachoinz
An internet photo reveals
laughing Nazi troops watching
Jews scrubbing Rachoinz town square,
twin church steeples in background.
Our travel years later:
Square now a small green park.
Steeples still loom behind.
(postscript: town is spelled Raciaz but pronounced Rachoinz. I chose the phonetic rather than the actual spelling because it works better in a poem)
