Evenings there upon the cliffs, just at sunset, the pelicans play, the ocean stirs the flow of waves in darkness, running over wet soft earth The soul can be heard, sounds of sea swelling, falling, breathing Rising up on it's haunt against the mouth of the caves, splitting the flowers against the sea colliding with the mountain Gently arousing the flow for the mountain, for the sea to chant your name to the night sky, Your aroma still lingers when I stand there, still on soft ground, still lingers as the ocean mist spreads you over the earth Spreads you over me, I find peace again In memory |

You know I think you have grown so much in your writing, but this particular one I love, as it feels written for me, Jan, Karen, or anyone that suffered a loss, and yet...I know it was yours. Digging around, and dusting shelves, don't mind me. |
