last call of the night
adjusts the volume hearing soft whimpering
listening to a new tale
shock and grief coats her sullen voice
listening with empathetic resignation
a story unfolds of love and loss.
*******
shuffling home slowly at one in the morning
my mind holds too many tales
I long for days of rest
three days I shall escape with my muse
writing to my heart’s content
while eating comfort food

Thanks. I love the cherita for telling stories. I have used it on my other blog to share stories of my GrandMaman. It is a pleasant way to share.
