her handwritten note
to make me feel
she’s still here

So much life
in the vee of that tree
indeed lots astir
at the crotch
Chagall 2016
A whisper in a storm
hums poetic
melody for the deaf
astounding blind artists
who speak till silenced who
no longer levitate for fractures
to wings heal slowly you know
what freedom feels like –

Clear mind. Vibrant life.
Hope. Opportunity. Beautiful oxygen.

She couldn’t
remember which
we’d said we’d want

Keep moving
we must follow
every drop of ray
must fall – alight
make truer yet
the glow of our skins

looks like blind
faith keeps coming
long the day after
angle me so
I can watch
the last fade
of the light

Today I sensed that
the care of it all
is what I needed to do
IV.
Today I sensed in
the care of it all
that I was needed

Inside
each poem is
another poem
I find myself
looking
for them
Chagall 2016
I came across
my draft of a poem
started a while back
It reads as if
we’d been interrupted
for all it says is
She
