Going home to clean mom's house

A chapter in the book Prosetry

Nonnet---Going Home

by jusylee72

I was outside the house of Mother
The door did not seem as friendly
I had the key to silence
No greeting awaited
I opened the door
I looked inside
Our pictures
Mom's smell
Lives
Two days
Since Mom died
Yet the house breathes
Memories revived
Crossword puzzle half done
Favorite mints in a jar
Reading glasses on side table
Empty chair wondering where she is
