The autumn leaf fell
silently
but I heard it's whisper
as it brushed the grass
with a kiss
The gentle breeze
carried your voice
across the ocean
over miles of deep blue
I want time
to crawl by slowly
but it's a freight train
thundering through
my days
Your memory floats
across the summer sky
like the seagull
that peers down
at me
The image of your smile
lingers like a shadow
of dusk
It reminds, yet aches
to be seen again
Grains of sand
wriggle their way
into my heart, like you
on that fateful winter day
with snow
Yet I know it's coming
the soft hush of spring
Once again shining
life into the closed
blossoms of flora
It shines
and breathes
like re-birthed lungs
The cry of a babe
newborn to the dark world
I wait
and hear the whispers
feel the gentle touch
of eternity
as it stretches
on fire-kissed wings
