You are not here

Nor ever have been

Though in truth

That other truth

You are never too too far away

Very many rearrangements

In this space

Which will be missed

Whenever you try

To reshape or revamp the future

Why give up

The gifts

Of the garden

Why expel yourself

To the downsized slides of life

Available at Amazon

Take the sunlight

Into your

Into your

Into your

Diminished returns

Leaf, flower, pane of glass

Soak up

Soak up

The photosynthesis

Steady and moving

Signifiers of life being lived

Absent Mindful

So so late

Too too untidy with life

Yet love still flickers

Aware, fully, of its absence

Say it again why don’t you

For all of those first-times

Wherever, whenever

Aware, almost, that they have gone

He sweeps the dirt

From the flagstones

Just as he carved terraces

Into the hillside garden

Available at Amazon

Change

You left

Without saying goodbye

But you took

My washing off the line

I guess in case it rained

Is it the sunlight

Or is it the flowers

Is it the frost

Or is it the dew
