Creating my own Easter
complete with
cabbage rolls and chocolate eggs
scalloped potatoes and apple crisp
baked ham and jellied salad
brings precious spirits of family
wafting from my kitchen
throughout my home til ~
hands deep in soapy dish water
I think I hear fragments of family stories
above the whistle of the tea kettle.
“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
~ William Faulkner, Requiem for a Nun
