very short poem

 

I had a dream about a friend who died a few years ago.    It was an odd "visit"  Things between us still somewhat unresolved.

This poem.  Very short.  Which, if you have read my book "Small Bites" you know that's how I write them

I called to say goodbye

she said

words she had practiced

until they were completely right

said to 

unanswered rings

that played in her ear
