today marks the 40th anniversary of her death
I still haven’t learned how to play the drums
but the January birds are singing like spring is here
and the coffee is good
and I’m thinking of the person
whose $30 I found in the lobby at work
and never called to claim it
did they need it?
I certainly did
so all is as well as to be expected
