We save cold toast
In the fridge
With things that
Unlike toast
Do well cold.
Because we make our own bread.
We save cold toast
The way we save duplicate photos
And the blurry ones
And the bad ones
That manage to capture
Something
Of someone we love.
Take our bread from the fridge;
Taste our world.

I figured you saved that bread for the dog so he will have lots of energy for sledding and great adventures.
ReplyDeleteVery nice and I know exactly what you mean Today I found pictures and was doing just that saving the toast, making collages and sending them to my son so he remembers his life. What a life he had.
ReplyDeleteYes I too save the blurry and faded color photos! There is always something there!! Always!!

What a wonderful, revealing poem Sandy, excellent. Food (no pun intended) for thought!
