Rummy

When Granny was away we used to
play
and have our special times like
rummy at the card table
and
big bottles of cranberry juice
and
lyrics flowing back and forth to each other
not original
but
meaningful, nonetheless
things were so simple yet important
and never ever any sour notes
and crashing a wedding, watching above in the balcony
of a blissful weekend
with
special made omlets
and nights filled with lights in the trees
and trips to BJ's for no reason at all
and this was us
this was right
tinted windows creeping up through the YO
and it's okay.....
because life is about change
but
i
will
not
4get
because it makes me smile
and laugh
and cry
and celebrate
and mourn......................
