Twice Told Tales

Christmas vacation in Atlantic Fish on Boylston
at the table a wall of glass partitions
the warmth inside from bundled passersby.
Dawn will start with Veneto Prosecco
I’ll have Casco Bay oysters 
a half dozen with horseradish and vinegar sides.
She’ll have tomato soup followed by the sea bass on lobster
I’ll have garden salad and years later remember 
the broccolini and Bronzini 
whole and charred.
