she died 2 years ago today. I have posted this before, and wanted to write something new, which I normaly do on special occasions and fold them into a framed picture of her. I could not do it this time so I opened the frame today and this poem popped out.


Leafs

Leafs blow across my mind and I remember you

They rustle and crackle under soft feet

They come in moments of sweet reflection

Stirring memories from dank places


Life grunts and groans onward

It dulls my senses and saps my strength

Then as the chasm calls I lean in to hear

The leafs that stir your song in my mind
"Music washes the dust from every day life."
