Around this Time
My Mom would have been 92 on September 4th
She passed in the autumn of 2014
Made a surprise visit on her 90th birthday
We had a corned beef sandwich together
Probably her last meal out
I tear up as I write this
It's a rough patch of time
in the days before her birthday
I'll feel better on September 5th

I usually cry in the shower for some reason ....
The mixing of raindrops perhaps. ...
