The Second Visit
My father’s second visit after his death
Was in an abandoned library
Underground, dust coated
And again he couldn’t talk
I think he was picking up books and gesturing
as if to speak on them
And that one was ecstatic
It was wonderful to be there
in the library that was buried with my father

I wondered if this was from a dream. I’ve had experiences I believed were contacts from my own father.
I’m so literal-minded it’s dawning on me that “the library that was buried with my father” is metaphorical.
Love your ‘visits’. They give such credence to the times when I too had visits but kept them secret.
love this n you
