Poetry For Everyday People

12:01

I just turned
forty two

my wife's asleep
after a beautiful night
of music and wine
it's raining
windy
a candle
by our bed remembers

our sixteen year old
is trying to sneak out

I was watching
a black and white
movie

but I thought
I would come
and say hello

just in case
you were up.
