The essence of she who laughed with us
Drifts on dreamy waves upward
To merge with puffy clouds in a blue sky;
To become the One that we all become;
...
We know you are now in a better place.
And we know we are better
For loving you…
For knowing you…
...
My God gave me strength…
Her God gave her courage…
Our God awarded us both
With a most wonderful gift
...
Don’t miss our house;
Don’t miss our yard;
Don’t miss our deck;
Don’t miss our garden;
...
The deep and dark night sky tonight
At once awes you with the majesty
Of its complete half-dome canopy
Of brilliant star lights,
...
Just wandering about when I go out
To the places where we used to go.
Can’t focus on anything since you’ve been gone.
...
43 years I've remembered her birthdays.
Now there is no need to.
True pathos burdens my shoulders.
...
The dawns break gray these days;
The sun struggles to warm me.
Even with the dim light brightening
It’s still hard to straighten up and take measure
...
I Witnessed
I witnessed…
The agony of her tortured body;
...
