I
don’t know why the scent of berries and exotic fruits reminds me of
you;
you
never used them in your cooking.
I
can’t tell why the hands feel quieter and peaceful
remembering
of you
while
washing, tidying, beautifying, tendering.
I
had never asked myself
what
it means to be a woman
as
woman meant just you.
I
never considered woman
not equalling writer
as
I learnt to write from you.
And
I never conceived a world
in
which there wouldn’t be
a
woman you.
