(My grief has wings

And soars through forgetful skies

Above the tempest where hope lies.

There dips to slice the peaceful day

Rocked now by its sudden storm.)

~

Hungry, starving sorrow,

Time has feathered, softened  your edges

Days have carried wisdom

Over the horizon, that old song,

Weathered. Gold and warm.
