J - JULIE'S HUSBAND

:: Today is J - JULIE'S HUSBAND ::



A shuffle in the room caught her attention.
The doors and windows, closed, as they were;
the cool breeze that blew, was very rare!

She wondered where from, it had entered.
A familiar muffed cough, then, distracted.

All alone in the house; who could it be,
she wondered.
The air sure did feel strange, that hazy morning; her inner-voice warned.

“Julie, it’s me,” Hearing a voice, she froze;
“Come over here,” as it spoke.

She quickly drew apart the curtains;
as the sunlight then filtered in.
In the dust that glistened, image of her late husband
flashed, like a lightning.
