Mrs. Yolanda Nicholsen Poet Shadorma

Retep Gargano is no more

We spent hours talking 
as I wrote poetry he divinely 
adored everything I wrote 
he adored my grace my 
dance my lovely smile each 
morning he'd write how did 
you sleep my beautiful we 
gathered flowers for his 
mother's grave the yellow 
ones that grew near the nave 
you're so beautiful the 
most beautiful girl in the world 
I want to share my world 
with you can you just get 
away be with me I would say 
yes let's stroll the sand 
hand in hand oh Retep you're 
such a wonderful man 
keeping a journal of our 
secret plans the sun would 
wink as the bridge opened 
as we sailed across the tides 
funny how life hides the good 
parts leaving only broken 
hearts torn and pulled apart 
Peter desperately grabs for
what is left of our song 
my poetry he did long
that fed his soul filled his 
weariness i won't live 
without you a dying lover 
cancer never to recover

Duke Beaufort June 4, 2024 at 6:35 AM Yolanda, you certainly can write beautifully about this subject. The pain will never relent, but you bring him back to life for all of us with your words. That is a wonderful way to celebrate his life and his affection for you. We're all sorry for your loss and feel it in your words.
