My Love D Ones a Sad and Beautiful Love Story

i would love to pull you down from the stars
engrave your memories in my skin so my souls is reminded 
of all the beautiful remnants, particles you have left behind
and passed on
so that there may breathe new life
creating space
sacred space
holy space
for the unseen to be seen
through the seeds that float through the wind
to be then felt
hope in aweness 
breath in the hope
new breath
new life
as it passes once
it creates so many
it unwinds
and connects
from each unseen to see 
to feel
it stays within me like a warm breeze 
swiftly and softly passing by
and through
it is you...

it is you...

Hi silent one! Thanks for taking your time to post that intellectual and thoughtful comment.. :) it’s something we can all relate to. The loss of one’s we have loved from this physical world into the other. Tears were spilling as I wrote and as I thought of my grandparents and uncles and how as children we don’t know enough to hold each memory precious. Sometimes I just want another word, another hug, another visit. Lest I honor them with a written memoir. ??
