Salt

Take me back
To that kitchen
In Miami Beach
I miss the memories
Of her cooking
Her dishes
And laugh
That roared
It could
Make you cry
I miss going
To the lobby
And getting her mail
And catching
Up with everyone
In a Spanish
I considered lacking
Despite praise
Saying something
Else
And right now
I miss her
Salt in a world
Needing flavor

  5. Your poem is a frame of this quarantine.
    We all are missing tons of things.
    I hope we can live all the good things again.

    Stay safe!

  8. This makes so many kitchen memories come back, those women who talked the most freely when cooking, mom and aunts. I miss them.
