SUNLIGHT IN A CHEESE CLOTH
Once, when I was a child,
maybe 3 or 4, I caught sunlight in a cheese cloth and carried it home for my
infant sister. I wanted her to have some
of my sunlight. But it was already there. Sunlight had beaten me to my
house. It had already introduced itself
to my infant sister. Sunlight and I haven't been close since. We have only
spoken in passing. I miss how close we were one. I miss the little jokes we
had. Maybe tomorrow I will capture
sunlight in a cheese cloth again, just for me this time. Maybe we can fix what
is broken.
