Blueberry pie in the oven
and children asking
questions that maybe I once
asked eating excess
filling from the bowl with
a spoon
But where are the children?
Their father, step
father, uncle, guardian, neighbor,
cousin and a
a stranger- I am all of them
and none of them
In one world I am a single
man living unmarried
with his mother or another
relative-perhaps a
breakfast cook and a manager
as well here or
there I work alone and I don’t
But in both worlds I really
like blue berry pie
especially when it has a nice
light top and is
home made- also warm cherry,
apple and pumpkin-
welcome home blue berry pie
