the parts
no longer there
filled in by memory
The Leaving
Falling Fast
a flurry
of oak leaves
hurries towards winter
Found
there was a lot of leaving
but some love
stayed behind
Those Polka Dots
the leaves give a lingering goodbye
small parts already departed
their absence a bittersweet embellishment
The Form Of Emptiness
first there was something
that is now
gone
The Quiet Constance Of A Cairn
the sun
is always shining
on my memories of you
Memorial Park
we sit amongst
forget me nots
and remember you
No Need To Ask
no longer here
yet everywhere
you are not forgotten
Freed Masonry
the rock wall
grew a monument
to love and loss and living
Recovery
With healing
the loss
is finally embraced.
Spirit in Clouds
During dark days
if I remember to look up
I can see your magnificence
shining on me.
