Twice Told Tales

Cheryl mentioned that years later she feels the loss 
and longs for mom calling her Cher Lynn.
I think of Cheryl’s personality as mid-west quiet
showing kindness to others
definitely not suffering complaints
dead set on walking through heaven’s gate.
On the phone the other night she mentioned
she took medicine for a migraine headache 
the medicine made her sleepy
and she didn’t remember much of the Sunday football games.
She described migraines as an allergic reaction 
pain from the back of her head coming up over her right eye 
sounds are too loud
black dots like bugs in the air
nauseous almost throwing up.
The cause this time was three pews away from where she was siting in church,
a woman’s perfume.
“Wow Cheryl if you knew you were so allergic
why didn’t you move?”
She said the minister was already preaching.
