remembrance

alone in my stillness, i wait to see the flowers dance across the meadow,
for then i will remember the joyous ways of our togetherness, how we moved
across the vast prairie of a greater love. now, it is a tiny mouse who hides in
the tall grass, trembling with every vibration of the earth, afraid to move.
yet the sun shines down each day, whether we are alone or together.
i see the beams of light fall upon your face, and remember how we danced
together across the vast prairie of a greater love, how the dew kissed our toes,
and the meadow flowers sang our hearts through from morning to eventide.
i remember you, i remember me, and a song we sang from the union of our hearts.
this song echoes through the dark night as stars wink across the sky.
