Through Kitchen Window
Drop by childhood home
Mom in kitchen, drinking tea
Her cigarettes close
Peek through back window
Mom sits at counter reading
Permanent fixture
NaPoWriMo Prompt – And now, for our prompt (optional, as always). This one is called “in the window.” Imagine a window looking into a place or onto a particular scene. It could be your childhood neighbor’s workshop, or a window looking into an alien spaceship. Maybe a window looking into a witch’s gingerbread cottage, or Lord Nelson’s cabin aboard the H.M.S. Victory. What do you see? What’s going on?
Good morning and welcome to day twenty nine of #NaPoWriMo where I’m looking in a window instead of looking out of one. I did go back to my childhood, but I dropped into my own home, and knew I had a picture of my mom sitting at “her spot” at the kitchen counter. I used the #haikuchallenge word – drop for the first part of the poem.

I can’t just be lazy and like. So I have to type out that I like 🙂
Thank you, Ren.

Menthol cigarettes were what my mom smoked.
