pinch and a punch by Red Brick Keshner Friday 3rd February 2023 12:52 pm on the first day of the month we flipped all calendars in sight and one on the sitting room wall brought but a moment’s flicker as the floral display exchanged my father’s now absent voice replayed his botanic wit and joy displayed what then was a random comment during our regular video calls but now no longer to be so in another couple of months shall mark the first year of his passing a pinch it was of a fond memory a punch in the gut of new reality

Thanks Hélène we as a generation need to learn and grow in the art of grieving and closure. At least that is a thought. That imagery quite presented itself when dad used to comment on the calendar photos during our facetime video calls.
