When we are old, I’m sure we will have
something someone will want to hear.
I don’t know how much or whether
we can say it ourselves, but I hope
we will be near each other and warm,
wearing flannel and patiently,
like noble waiters grasping, lifting,
offering to others what we mean to share.
This little video of Tomas Tranströmer and his wife Monica made my heart so happy—
