Beautiful like today 

Blue sky so crystal clear

White clouds so pure

and the sun so bright and warm

gently hugging every inch of face…

This perfect early winter day

Air filled with ripe fruits, golden leaves

mature and melancholy

I am so sad that 

Mom would not have another day like today that

I would not have another day with Mom like today.

Just cry

on the N train 

going down the tunnel to Manhattan

to have lunch with a friend.
