Last Word To Begin
My constant companions…
words reel and recast
Like a lady in waiting,
they clear every path
Extending forever,
to store what I feel
My thoughts they intrude,
my meanings revealed
My past they’ve forgiven,
my future ignored
They rest in my prayers,
hopes and wishes restored
I know at the end,
but one thing will remain
A last word to take with me
—to begin once again
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2018)
