Mothers' weekend in Denver

It's decided.  She will transfer to Marquette in January.  Closer but not too close.  It looks to be a good thing.

I thought to visit her

For mothers’ weekend

This winter,

Only to find her moving

Closer.

I do not know if the new place

Offers such a thing

As mothers’ weekend in February.

Winter in Milwaukee

Does not hold the same appeal

As

Winter in Denver.

Still

Still

Visits will not require

Airline tickets,

I can keep a picture

Of the Rockies

On my desk

And see her on a whim.

Quiz

My daughter has chosen a college with perfect weather.

I took another

Of the multitudinous quizzes

On social media

This morning.

Apparently the one place

In the country

With perfect weather

For me.

Is Denver, Colorado.

I must be channeling

My daughter.

Or maybe she

Is channeling

Me.

We will drive 14 hours

To Denver

At the end of August

Drop her off

In perfect weather.
