when i look at him
i see the burning color
that our childrens eyes could have
running my fingers through his hair,
i kiss his forehead softly
and tell our future to sleep well
when i hear his soft singing,
in the distance, if i listen,
our legacy is humming along
my bare finger is heavy
from the phantom weight
of a circular, diamond cut vow
