Leftovers

My mother never fed
Me leftovers. She spent
A lot of time fixing the
Best meals I will always
Remember. She’s gone
Now, but her meals are
Not the only loving
Things I’ll remember
About her.

Anniversary

An anniversary is to
Mark a special occasion,
Especially a marriage.
The time spent in a loving
Marriage is what it is all
About.
Happy 53rd Anniversary,
Brenda, I love you!

Quotation

Of all the quotations I’ve known one jumps
Out at me most of all, that is love all the
People you have. Embrace them and tell
Them you love them. Love is strong but
Also fragile. When the day comes and
They aren’t with you anymore, physically
You both are still united in love.

Purple Sunglasses

I gave her the purple sunglasses
Thinking she considered them a
Joke but she actually liked them.
She was like that, loving, open
And tolerant of my goofy ways.
It’s been two weeks since she
Has been missing. The only
Lead we have is that somebody
Thought they saw her being
Shoved into a car. And, well,
I did find the purple sunglasses
On the sidewalk.
