Jewel
Palm to palm, fingers intertwined
A maze of lives well lived
Gestural motions, blessings, devotions
A well of life’s lessons, wisdoms, questions
An honest recital of words unsaid,
A soul shared but not fled
Your smile stored under lock and key
...never to leave me
Lending my ear to the wind to catch your daydream
not yet lost
Placing my heart to the heavens to find your gospel
still looming in the light of your yesterday
