my nostrils filled with spicy chicken soup, my fingers warmed by buttered bread
a foggy morning, clouds on my head, dewdrops on my feet
an upbeat R&B music, soft humming of appliances in the house
a winter blue plate, oiled by spices, white painted over cracks
the hush of the room, mess of clothes & accessories, smell of soap & towels
bare garden, a pot of spring seeds, soggy splayed summer leaves
an empty page of the book, unanswered questions, hanging conversation
the silence of trees & birds, scattered fallen leaves, broken flower shrubs
slow drip of melting winter ice, fading sunlight on walls, faint sounds of laughter
