Notes About The Poem

BEQUEST

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Early fall has passed; it’s November now. The air is noticeably colder, drawing the heat from my skin. With each breath I take, the moisture from my lungs rises in thick plumes before me.
winter sun readies
autumn sighs, bequeaths its gift 
confetti garland

William Kelii Kekaula November 2, 2025 at 8:53 PM We entertain what ascertains us, for it exists with no mind of its own but to be, without any forethought of the countless lives who've aged and passed into the greater light, unknown to that essence created for the purpose to be there for us, for now, until its time, Aloha, William.
