you
have come
to mind
most noticeably
lately.
not in a longing
way;
but just
in
passing thoughts
or the mention
of a place
that you may
have made;
like Equatorial Guinea,
or the promised trip
to Jamaica.
or music
like Luther Vandross
or that Floetry piece
that made me
think
of
you.
or one of the myriad
memories
that I attach
to you.
so i am thinking
that maybe
you
need
a thought,
or a prayer,
or a blessing,
or
a word;
which
i will be glad
to offer;
as i enjoy
the abundance
of my life
and celebrate
this season
of
Eid.*
