My Aunt With Her Red Car
Out of the blue she comes
always uninvited
sometimes too early
sometimes too late
sometimes she stays
away for months…
That tend to have us females
perplexed
because sometimes
it's better to have
her uninvited
then to not have her around…
Her staying away
can mean a few things
the ultimate sign
That there is a baby
on the way.
She is preceded by moods
that turns a pretty,
agreeable, “yes sir lady”
Into a question asking,
one minute crying,
the next minute laughing
individual…
Someone who does not
understand herself,
who just want to be held
and reminded that they are loved
and that everything will fall into place
once my aunt with her red car
arrives and restores the calm…
