on the wind
smell of the burning wood
where are you now
when the winter chill
has returned
wisps of dirty clouds
strung across moonface
listening
to your voice
not the words
sunday afternoon
catching up with work
outside my office
two students kiss
and kiss and kiss
news of my father's death
my hands
holding the phone
like his
like my son's
