For my late husband, Michael J. Elliott.
For a blessed hour to sleep and awaken in 
your presence,
as the dusty antique grandfather clock chimes in 
solemnity's hour of bereavement,
to whom I am enslaved, always.
My cherish of you in unquenchable fires, scorching,
undying, 
as the netherworld's watchmen appear in the
eve shadows-
remnants of the years past joys and sorrows.

All of life's anguish of regrets,
of sweeter remembrances,
of seeking solace from the sympathy
of the saints,
as summertide's augustness begins
to weep farewell, fading.

I still hear your jeweled singing,
of dream travels through the expanse
of misted drapes of stars of a sapphire
and golden heaven-gate,
to have communion with you. ~
