Pieces of Me-Ifl

I felt like... 

Pieces of me were 

scattered across the earth; 

lost.  

Leaving only my body intact. 

 

 Too close to G-d: 

 

In the wind that dances with trees, 

The light evading shadows, 

and in the laughs of toddlers that walk  

hand in hand down the steep steps.  

 

She watches me.  

sometimes her eyes gloss over 

 then stream.  

 In these moments she remembers;  

She finds me and feels 

what she has lost.
