FIRST PLACE

“I think perhaps I will always hold a candle for you –
even until it burns my hand. And when the light has
long since gone …. I will be there in the darkness holding
what remains, quite simply because I cannot let go.”

Bench In Snow



                                      I recall when my love
        and I . . .  sat on a wooden bench
           the evening was silent in the old park~
     though cool-  I felt quite warm
                   because of his lips and whispers  . . .   
          now, on a silent cemetery bench
      I remember our love _
          my heart weeps, weeps-   alone in the graveyard
