emily, history, legacy, life, life well lived, love, memory, this isn't depressing, time
is a part of me
forsaken
when my name
no longer sounds –
when photographs
are scattered
to the wind
when dates
are worn to nothing –
but a mark upon the stone
when the burden
of remembrance –
fails to mend
will there be the one
who wonders still
to places I was loved –
to find my words
a whisper saved
will there I love
again
. . .

abundance, blessings, grace, life, love, rain, reflection, sometimes, soul memory, understanding
sometimes sweet
oft times bitter –
the taste of yesterdays
but true to love
the worth of either
has filled my troubled heart
with grace
there are no lines
nor rivers swiftly
suffered by the rain
no griefs have I without confessing
everything to gain
let me live
or let me gather
all tis mine or thought for once –
let me pass beyond this slumber
but leave to memory
the whole of us
. . .

would these few
these hours sweet
deny the years between
– adrift upon eternity
waiting on a
dream
would this day
be burdened –
when filled with all I know
suffered thru the coming back
– another time
to go
would these words
be truth enough
to reach beyond all I hold dear –
written as a verse
to keep you near
would the dawn
approach from some great distance
to become
the first I knew
to love you –
have I loved you
all along

almost always, awakened, here, life, light, love, open heart, sometimes, still, time, trust, willing
were not for these –
these open arms
this willing heart
reminders
the warmth of love becoming
another distant day
when by some other path
I came –
with want for one redemption
were not these eyes
permitted sight –
light
to see your face

press me not
for when the light
will burn to show the way
tell not the others
how I grieved
with want for one more day
how long the way returning me
how sweet the welcome in
press me not the moment
when I am yours
again

what gifts
the heart surrenders
at the first faint light
of love
come heavy now
the courage to receive
blessing wherein longing eyes
sight where once was none
windows open
all night long to leave
but for a promise
life remains –
to warm the way
the path we’ve sewn
let me know how long to wait
to leave the coffee on
. . .

would that your heart
remember us this –
asleep neath a blanket of night
dreaming our days
as atonement for touch
– burned into memory
hushed by the sight
of ten thousand ancients
falling around –
moonlight kissing the ground
I will know you the same
in places afar –
as sure was your love come for me
held to a moment
we lit up the dark –
and willed for a moment
one more destiny
. . .

enduring, enough to recall, lasting, life, love, promise, story, that which we keep, the way, time, trust, truth, wholely remembered
love will find us
regardless how far –
we’ve come from beginning
this truth to decide
love seeks for mercy
in all we endure
– longing no longer
denied
promise is pulled
as verse from the soul –
traded these wages
of sin –
syllables rent
by the taste of a name
story made over
again
whisper escapes
as dark from a dream
light formed anew
every dawn
the promise of heaven
is wingeds in flight –
echoes returning
a sigh
to your song
. . .

blessings, carry me sweetly, closer still, home, life, lifetimes, love, memory, seasons, sometimes, stars, trust, truth
as witness I was
to the place we were started
to a place in the grass
once we lay
crushed by the stars
ten thousand years older –
than once I was your
faraway
once was a dream
you spoke of it often –
gave it a name
I adore
how is it now
I’ve replaced every window
and hung up my heart
by the door
carry me now
think of me sweetly –
as a soft silhouette on the night
saved to a moment
with all we’ve forgotten –
love seeking truth –
in the memory
of light
. . .

would that you knew me
one night on the run –
out past the place fences
were strung
out past the memory
of all we’ve become –
tis a place
you knew me this way
as light
through a bonnet of cedar
and vine –
beckoning planets
the color of jade
bound us together
beyond what was lost –
tears fell a river
of rain
ribbons and lace
the burden of grace –
cigarettes burned down
the barn
dare my assumption
for all I held dear –
as near to my heart
once the stars
