Timeless

I hold you in memory, like a flaming star that etched the night sky, before vanishing in darkness Leaving nothing, but a vision burned in the eyes, long after your passing. I remember you, each cold winter night, when frost clings to my window pane and a fire crackles in an empty room, once filled with laughter and dance Each evening reminds me of you, when a candle is lit, or a sunset glows red When the first star appears on the horizon I think of you In a summer dress or cotton blouse, waiting for the first spring butterfly, to flutter above your open palms in gentle flight To have loved you, could anymore be said, or done? I keep you warm in my heart, a timeless refuge I remember you, when I'm lonely Yours is the face that guards my heart Yours is the calming voice inside my head Yours is the love, I will never know again 6/16/16....words 160
