One Year Has Now Passed
On the Anniversary of Your Death
365
days have
passed
365
days from when
i laid you down
my dear Sabine
closed your
beautiful loving devoted
eyes
you told me
to stay
don’t run
downsize
sell the other property
you stayed
blessed
supported me
my recovery
remained
brought me a
living loving physical companion
no words exist
nor can anyone
understand
your influence on
my life
my gratitude
40 years
you gave me
cancer finally
having its way
you nudged Christine
into my life
to carry me on
to give me
care
support
love
respect
commitment
trust
honesty
vulnerability and
openness
you were and are
(and always will be)
wind
beneath my wings
yes
until we all
meet
again.
