Mom Was In The Hallway

i wasn't

expecting you at work today

thinking of you at all

ready for you to be here



...but suddenly...


you were

in the air: all around me

in my mind: sudden bright flashes

in my heart: surprisingly warm & close



...white shoulders...


fragrance favored by

you on sundays

my coworker today



...it lasted...


only

a moment

a whole lifetime



...and so...


I miss

you

again

today
