in the place of omission ~
stories unfold
by a change in my will
to remember
as forgotten the wonder
of promises made
when into this form
I was come

with ache to
discover ~
as truth unto blood
and love (more than heart)
claims my soul
to remain as a moment
passed us into ~
as close now the wind
are the secrets
we know

rekindled
as something
moves me to say
when given of words
soon to pass
solace of angels
comforts to some
shall fill me
to heal me ~
strength I become

is forever a time
for questions undone ~
of ashes blown over
the best of these lines
poems held
to a place
without voice ~
as silence remembers
the last one
to rhyme

~
