Written: June 29, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ Cockle, two hooves clung over a hundred brothers. You discovered unmatched comfort such as no other. An awl compiled your flight of stairs to a dynasty. A lasting legacy of resilience and strength to foresee. A hundred tides, over a thousand plovers of sunshine You've witnessed a time journey and a legacy divine. In the castanet you erected, you're overweight. Memories are archived on a home limestone site. Without us, you'd be as peaceful as dawn. But we found your deeds, a ruby to fawn. Witnessing your consciousness is a sight so rare. As eyes leave your cheek, a glimmer, an affair Saturn flashbulb lobes are viewed using a lens. Stunning and appealing, transcendent loveliness The snow breaks apart in a universe-wide ballet. The rings are on exhibit; they are a marvelous display. A motionless, tilted cap, a mark of your grace. To learn how to leave things alone, embrace Ocean Treasures A story underwater unfolds. A quahog species, so ancient and bold.

What a gorgeous poem, so full of meaning, and imagery galore. Delicate rhyme. I was struck by the line: The snow breaks apart in a universe-wide ballet. Sotto, you outdid yourself.
