Gently

A string of stars embrace the night sky,
a song of sorrow sings to the soul.
~
A shelf of memories gather dust
rainbows, shadows and marigolds.
~

Gently

Gently held your memory,

tucked it in my heart.

~

Kissed you in a dream,

on a northern star.

~

Whispered your name in the

dark of night, heard it echo

back to me from the morning

sky.

~

Danced each morning in your

warm embrace,surreal as could

be, until you began to fade.
