Today is her birthday.
Routine kitchen cleaning is interrupted
By the startling realization
you are gone;
As if it were somehow forgotten.
Struggling with an impossible reality
And recalling the months, the day, the time. The Moment.
Today is your birthday.
I think about what
we would be doing.
Happy Birthday Mom!
