Notes About The Poem

Written on June 2, 2026

Memories


Often in the least expected 
A moment, breathed 
by the softest sunset, the melody
rhythms of a prayer at twilight,
wonders inspired, 
quietly harmonizing with the songs
lovely stories written by hearts
who hear the psalms
verses revealed by birds in flight,
fluttering poems, 
hearts opened by grandma’s biscuits,
chestnuts bowed low
on a October afternoon,
sweet silence beneath the glorious rhythm
of rain showers, blessings
crying out gentle tales,
beneath the bravest skies
eyes glistening, tears from the oaks
and pines who weep with leaves
in softest green, buttery sunlight
trembling with reflections
what it means to believe in yesterday
before the graves were filled
before the nights were cold
before the stars grew dim
before the memories wept
tears who reveal what it means to agree
even the heart’s sweetest memories
can be soaked in grief.
