..: exhale :..Monday morning 10:18am
the children in trusted, loving hands
Alone
after a weekend without beloved husband, father, soulmate
At a favored French cafe
journal, and cafe au lait in hand
time to gather my thoughts
and recalibrate
getting my bearings back
my head empty,
to fill up again
with life's laundry list
my head empty,
to fill up again
with life's laundry list
for nowI will savor the quiet
the food before me
and be grateful for all the precious gifts and small moments
that I have been given the gift of this time alone
to see
