Slice of Life/Day in a Poem (Day 28): Each Year, The Same

(This is for the Slice of Life challenge, hosted by Two Writing Teachers. We write on Tuesdays about the small moments in the larger perspective and then all through March — every single day  …  You write, too.)

Each year’s Slice on the blog
on this twenty-eighth day
lands in a very predictable way:

It’s my middle son’s birthday
– as before and as yet to come –
I write of it, just a bit, here, today

Peace (in celebration),
Kevin
