I was on my
way to work
and had just
finished putting
the gift in my
pack so I could
wrap it at work.
5
Marie’s call
later and
then the call to
arrange for an
anniversary
date a step- grand
nieces wedding.
8
Marrying this
day they could
celebrate
on valentines
day so that
forty-one becomes
eighty-two halves.
11
separations
as the penguins
left each other
to survive,
separations
in fact helped
our love survive.
14
Then a pleasant
goodnight embrace ,
thoughts of an
eternal future
together as
we submit to
God and each other

Calls were slower
the first hour
but the purchase
kept unwrapping
for lack of tape
interupted
by phone calls
6
Then came
hope as always
that Laura and
Oscar may find
it easier
than I did
to accept
9
Our own real
Celebration
together
began with
Macey’s
banana splits
then the penguins.
12
Our hearts were warm
after the movie
and popcorn.
A pair of shoes
purchased and then
finding Laura’s
wedding gift.
