card
draped in berries,
images
of grapes,
plums, perhaps.
it's hard to tell, the card
has aged.
who hasn't?
but on it in precise
cursive
is a recipe for pork
chops.
the seasoning listed.
the method
and length of cooking.
the time,
the temperature.
someone gifted this to me
a long time
ago.
a gesture of kindness,
never repaid.
i wish i knew her now,
as i did
back then, whoever
she is,
wherever she did go,
i'd like to tell her
how wonderful it
all was,
at last made
and tasted.
