Who's in charge?

Who's in charge?
not us

as of
this morning
I was
too busy
teaching, meeting

for Peter's yartzeit
then
schedule changed
no teaching
but
yes meeting

so
I could
go to
the grave

then
getting
gussied up
looking
serious, professional
to meet
(with needlepoint on my lap)

teeth brushed
hat on
phone rings

sprint
to hear
no meeting

saved by the bell

lucky to hear
while still home

now other plans
memorial eve
for Peter

seems like G-d
wanted me
to remember
our friend
to remember
Peter

we're just tools
to do
what G-d plans
