ONE

I visited Naoma’s
 Grave today,
Alone!
The first time since she died.
It was strange.
Suddenly,
She and I were
All alone;
No one else was there,
No one else could
Possibly
Have been there,
And we were
One!

Love
Experienced,
Totally and completely,
Becomes contentment
Beyond
Knowledge, even
Beyond imagination!
I have felt
 The spirit of love
As no one else
Has ever felt it.
Yet, I know,
And truly hope,
That I am wrong!

Life must
 Go on.
There are stars
To reach
And there are mountains
To climb.
There are
Grandchildren to teach
And grandchildren
To love!
And there is a date to be kept
Somewhere
Out there, in infinity,
Forevermore!
