Lunchbox

(A tribute to Wm. Carlos Williams "This is Just to Say")

I knew I would
wake up and
the bed would still
be warm

So,
While you eat
your peanut butter
And strawberry jelly
sandwich; slices of
multigrain bread
layered with chunky,
salty peanut spread,

The place
where your head
Laid on my pillow


is waiting
To be filled again.
(enjoy your sandwich.)
