Where Memories Meet

White snow blankets where he lays
frosted breath whispers love's malaise
frozen tears drop crystal tapestry
covers my dearest with my agony
 
Within the frigid snowy day
on knees I weep while children play
one tiny voice speaks, ''are you ok?''
my heart, jolted, gave way
 
A shrine placed as a crown
where he lay in the ground
Christmas green and red  upon his head
where he rests among the dead
 
Broken heart, bereft, keening low
rocking to and fro, no comfort in the snow
let the winter birds sing solace from bare trees
may bitter winds console his spirit til at ease
 
Dreams of spring will soothe, give respite
visions of lilacs and loons to hold tight
of sparkling lakes and Crescent Beach
where our memories so often meet
 
Sheets white as today's snow  
blowing under blue sky and sun's glow
your face, those eyes ever watching
feeling your love without touching
 
All the beauty of you and I
will carry me to you when I die
all this I give to you, my only love
my promise, my heart, my darling one.
