Savoring Love
for Lorraine
What!
She says she keeps all my message.
Does she store them in cookie jars?
Or cigar boxes under her bed?
Perhaps in the laundry room
neatly stacked with the cleaning supplies?
As the sun rises in the east over her house
I imagine my messages
in her pantry
tucked between the honey
and coconut sugar
along with her other sweetnesses!
