Colors draping
their shoulders
at the coroner's call,
parallel to the stark
of your passing

in the image
of waves over sea
I saunter, adrift
in the absence, lost
to the wordlessness,
the dour sensation
that you lay now
in the twilight's
first dimension

though I cling
to that faint light
that mystifies morning
in the alternating rises
between somber and
radiant, that rewind to
your glory

Wow, this is exactly the mood I am in right now.

You render these kind of thoughts so well.

Michelle, your picture is an absolute vision, its breathtaking (okay try to compose yourself, breathe, breathe ha).

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your poem, like everything else was beautiful.

Happy Valentines Goddess.
