Thumbing through
my address book
For the
address for every card…
I noticed
many friends died this year.
Time hit the
“M’s” real hard.
Florence
Marlow, my best friend’s mother,
Mary Martin,
my Oregon friend…
Judie
Michael, shared my love for irony,
Brought two
thousand seventeen to an end.
There are
even more lost names this year,
Erased from
my address book,
I will celebrate
the New Year’s,
Giving the
past, one sad last look.
