She holds him …
Can’t, won’t, wouldn’t want to let him go, so … she holds him in a slow…………. A slow embrace…
… And so …….
She keeps him close. So… A ghost, an apparition, an animal with vision…- he goes..
She knows his life is right, it’s life; alive- a spirit still beside her.
She knows he rides at night’s time,
the same knight she’d climb-
– beside and next to.
He’s next to .. He’s next, too. …
Her now, Only now-
he is,
with … With her, her kids… He watches out…
Watches over… Watches in…
He watches.. Watch as… He wa…
His watch hangs over- his grandson’s wrist, he’ll enlist,
be present at each:
of– In some .. Or. …
… in all his families
… gatherings..
She supposed -his rings, his calls, his messages, his …
His words were almost All He Had… She supposed those…
Words were all he’d offer… She supposed he’d always offer…
She holds memory-ies/ …. Memories like these -are kept in memoirs, he’s-wrapped in mammary… -glands,
She stands to hug his -LIFE. She’d love to hold his whole… LIFE, his life is what she’d live for.
She knows though –
-that he …
He is gone but watching on… He is on his way, she wants his way…
She Loves him, Way.. She Loves… She holds him in this Hug.
She holds him close…
