summer fills up too fast
work 'round surgery
his ankle needs the knife again
metal support rods screwed in

summer fills up too fast
work 'round surgery
his ankle needs the knife again
metal support rods screwed in
birthday plan breakdown
final for Betsy's thank you card
glad to leave the shop
finding her forever home
a gift of well-being
meant to ease her friend's pain
feeds love with ev'ry spoonful
******
second favorite version
love in a gift box
healing savories and sweets
holding you whenever
I hold onto the spoon
forgot to go home
seeing with new eyes
heart takes the photo

heart takes the photo
friends' love all around
click
greeting the morning
before high heat of the day
when nature cries for cooler temps
with the resilient strength
of Stan, gratitude of Carolyn
and patience of caregivers
bouquet of roses
many-petaled layers
each fragrance unique

These suburban housewives all lived on my block and were good friends of my mother.
I have a deep sense of nostalgia when I look at this photo.
