if you remember love
just add hope
share it in your own words
despite rain
despite uncertainty
share a story that conveys
love belongs to everyone
don’t be surprised if
it brings about smiles
drawing back the curtains
eventually brings sunlight
by mary ann blinkhorn
perhaps it was
the angle
the snow fell
the distant
song carried by winds
brushed against window
but whatever it was
it affected me
left me mouthing
a wish for you
penning it
in the air
with finger
i wish you peace
by mary ann blinkhorn
and there they were
two old friends in the shopping mall, warmly smiling
we hugged
talked about old times
like how Neals used to
bring his trumpet to the
annual holiday sing-a-longs at the day care centre
play alongside of me
me on the piano
Patsy singing harmonies like an angel
we celebrated
Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa and Ramadan
all in the same celebration
the sounds of children’s and staff’s voices
singing gleefully, singing respectfully
like one big happy family
we were one big happy family
such beautiful memories
left me with a warm feeling of peace
by mary ann blinkhorn
Unbelievably, this image gives me the same feeling of peace that he gave to me when he was alive. His written words, translated into image. 🙂
