Remebering Tete i remember your smile, the way your face beamed with happiness as you pulled the white lace curtain to see who was ringing the bell. i remember your kisses, always too noisy and too many as you pulled me close for a warm embrace which always seemed too long. i remember your walk, slow and shifty in your white socks and slippers as you pulled me into the long hallway which always had the wonderful aroma of something cooking. i remember your voice, loud and boisterous as you served me something delicious to eat and told me the family stories over and over again. i remember your expression, when i'd say i had to leave as you thank me the visit which you'd always say was too short.
Reason for writing:
i remember your saying,
vaya con dios mi nina,
as you'd pull me close for another embrace
and always too many kisses.
