Are far away
Puncturing the English culture with your Bengali American flare
Bustling around
I see you there in the park
Snipping at pine trees with your small scissors
Maybe wearing long and green Hunter boots
On your tiptoes
Olive beside you, or some such child
The table is set
I can't imagine because I have just got up
But hey
That is the difference between here and there
The ocean stretching his legs out between us
Not building a bridge
I wish everyone knew what I knew about you
You are strong
Yet kind and so
People don't always know
You've been thinking about this meal all week and yet
When people enter your home
You will greet them which such comfort that
They'll think your home always looks this warm this cozy this handsome
That you possibly just whipped the food up
They'll feel this way because you,J, will love them
And it will outweigh the food
Or the decor
Though those pine nips are adorable
oh chels. How did I just find this now? what an honor and a gift to be known by you, to be given carefully written words by you, I feel so special. I love you so much and this was such a teeny jewel for me to read and tuck in my heart's pocket. thank you. and i wish you were here.
