Home Base

My mother is in the kitchen

laughing

while making pancakes

for us

As I look out the window

everything remains as it has been

my memories run far back

bringing me to this present day  

little has changed out my window

Nor in my mother’s kitchen

Nor in our hearts

lucky 

to have my mom, my family, this home

Lucky.
