                             TIME TRAVEL

 

 

Tucked safely away

in the zippered compartment

of an old quilted handbag

on a closet's top shelf,

my expired passport seems  

none the worse for the wear

it had in bygone days

when my late husband and I

saw dreams realized as planes   

touched down on foreign soil. 

 

I travel light these days,

needing no passport or luggage

or neighbor to feed my cat.

Now, years from the past,

I journey alone through books

And keep dear memories alive.

 

                                                                        By
