When Spring Comes Again c2019

written by: Pamela Tyree Griffin

 

And when Spring comes again –
with the month which includes your birthday-
we will smile. 

For a moment we shall not recall
that your birthday cake will
not materialize.
There will be no candles
casting shadows from a ballet of tiny flame.
 
We will temper our glee
for the sadness never leaves for long.

When Spring comes again –
and our hearts beat selfish and unrelenting-
we will say a desperate prayer
longing for you to be there

when Spring comes again

 

NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:

In memory of and love for my precious little brother (1963 – 2019) RIP
