morning rain
soaking the streets

Guilt and Regret
8.
bagged for the jumble
my sister's cast-offs
became my secret desire
desperate to be a grown woman
I would wish with all my heart.
That green dress with dozens of buttons
hung in my wardrobe for years
and our mother's mink coat
still smelled of her perfume.
