Anno Mirabilis
He often thought of her at odd times.
During the New Year cleaning, as he beat the dust out of the library carpets, he remembered the way the August sun rimmed her pale hand as she pointed to a passing dragonfly. When he buttered his toast at breakfast, he heard again her silly song about frogs as they walked along the river. When he handed the cashier his credit card at the bookstall that afternoon, he saw the slow unfurling of her smile as she listened to Count Basie on the radio.
He stored all of her inside him; he saved every gesture, look, and word, so that even when she passed on, he could fill those empty years.
And that, he knew, was the wonder of her.
