Forever February All along the edge of night she silent slips with ancient ways with toss of head sends mauve to dark this art work is the sky and more belabor not the trust she has that turn of hand can bring sun down Come February now the time of mourn she stops to ponder not warn or wasted from so much night and day how display the color of the way it feels to leave beloved flying over hills to stay forever along the mist that tears have made She knows this space from every year has come to feel the callus it has wept and contemplate the ways to pull the paint to make a backdrop compliment the grief and some relief the beauty caught define like sweet memory of sun in shine of hair The time is near now she can feel the strain though it remains eclipsed the brightness fades then opens new a page of month of days so turning now she sets the sun in clay to bend forever February into love again ------ 1-30-03 |

Sissie, now we have something to share, in a rare and unique way.... Mother passed in January, but will be celebrated in February. Now I have a common stone to touch with my sister. This is beautiful and wonderful, in your very special heart of love. It fits more than you know, and knows more than your heart. Keep this one aside, for that book you have promised me. |

Alas mine arrived in the month yours departed. And yet some how the memories mingle partially shared in name and the rest shared in love both gained and lost and gained again. It is your words and faithfulness that I find strength and solice. Peace dear friend. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

She knows this space from every year has come to feel the callus it has wept and contemplate the ways to pull the paint to make a backdrop compliment the grief and some relief the beauty caught define like sweet memory of sun in shine of hair ~*~ I just came back for a warm hug. |
