Cancer Comes
Cancer came
A holiday ticket
Without a dark imagination
I enjoy friends
Expressions of love
Children’s unexpected patience
My own stopping
A new gentle tiredness
No leg waxing
A refreshing intimacy with mortality
New trust in what is
New passion in loving
And making love
Urgency in sharing life
In being alive
Great freedom
A beautiful poem
I could never write

This piece has an endearing sadness. A lovely sadness. Really nice write with a sweet flow.
Love a little harder when you don't have much more time for loving.
Awesome piece.
