we walked
and in thoughts that shape 
prayers without words.

in my soul. 
And, oh,...

I’m one hundred!

And what do I...

we meet at the bench
tucked under the trees, in the park

Unable to speak
I am feeling a squeeze in my breast
My emotions are clenched
with years of unrest
since that day that I left, empty...
