I drove my car 3200 miles
to spend 10 days
with the beloved Mrs. CarPeo
in Katonah, NY
9 days out of 10,
blizzard-like snow
had to be shoveled
and I loved
every minute of it
***
My youth flashed before me
—particularly—
a Long Island blizzard
when my Mother
invited six snow-soaked
teenagers into our home,
feeding us hot chocolate
by the bucket load
I loved every minute
of that visit
because I knew
I would end the visit
by driving back
to sun-drenched
Southern California
If arithmetic doesn't fail me, you drove a total of 6400 miles round-trip.
