bday in the the garden
5/7
just like on the anniversary of her death,
it was a really rainy day today
and cold
and windy
more like march
than may
i had a little bit of plastic
to put on the bench
to sit on
but i wasn't feeling the connection
until
i heard her voice
interrupt my coughing
to say
"you fool,
what are you doing out here,
go home,
you are sick"
it really made me smile,
so risha,
but i am glad i went
