Poem #17 for the November Poem-A-Day challenge. Today’s prompt was to write a “tell me why” poem.
Tell me why this happened
Why it took me so long
Why you called
Why time runs in a circle
but never repeats
Why it took you so long
Why I answered
Why this commercial plays
over and over
Why last night was different
Why the other nights were the same
Why some are alone, and some are not
Why this hummus tastes like summer
Why it took us so long
Why you called
Why I answered
