how strange is this
every summer
i recall meeting my aunt and uncle
going into the back door of the coop
for their christmas turkey
in the snow of memory
they live on
how strange is this
the prick of tears on a hot day
in june after tea and scones
the clotted cream and the jam
of healed wounds
and not a breeze in the orchard
the longest day
