We Were Once Enough

That photo of me, I found today. I hadn’t seen it for years. I remember why I smiled, I remember the shirt, the day I bought it, and why. I thought it suited me. So did she. That’s why she took the picture. “Try it on,” she said, almost begged, as she held it againstContinue reading “We Were Once Enough”

Five Stars and the Moon

“One star’s not enough for someone as wonderful as you, so I wish you five stars and the moon.” The auditorium was already half full when I arrived. Velvet seats, dimmed chandeliers, the low murmur of strangers settling in. Programs rustled like leaves. A cough here, a laugh there. The kind of crowd that believedContinue reading “Five Stars and the Moon”

1993

Stepping into the sweet shop Coins in my zip up wallet No credit cards, no phone, no phone card Lady behind the counter takes my bag, asks for 13p I take the wallet from my pocket * Life is slow, but I don’t know it yet I walk out eating the first of three blackContinue reading “1993”

The Picnic

Put down the hamper Open the lid Take out the sandwiches There’s enough here for you, me, Jane and Sid * Chomp chomp as we finally eat The long drive from the city has taken us far into rural retreat Between each bite is a joke, a memory or a story * We learn soContinue reading “The Picnic”
