it is an overcast
& room temperature day
a day that tried for more
& turned out like weak tea
there is a sense of something forgotten / lost / gone
& a feeling of something
missed / wrong / skewed
& then there comes a moment
when i think / feel / know
that if i turned round now
my grandparents would be there
a reassuring perfectionof themselves
maybe even hand in hand
in beige & smiling
