Grandmother’s Voice on the Telephone

~ Karen S. Córdova

66 pounds.  Dying by ounces.

When she speaks, air within her crackles like the sweetest dove trying to walk, to flit on autumn leaves without breaking them, honoring those few moments before haze shudders and rain completes, returns Abuelita to her beloved garden feeding roots of ancient plum and apple trees that give both life and shade, that lean into the acequia.

Yes, there will be that silent day when leaves disintegrate and cover her, becoming her petate.  No.  Not yet — Brittle and crisp, her voice still shades me from harsh knowing she is leaving as it crushes English/Spanish into sound scented paperwhite and fruit of manzanares:

Come.  See me now. I’m here.  Tell everyone good-bye for me.
