To those who loved me

I thought of you today.

The thought came from a memory

So beloved in my heart,

That I recalled your love for me.

The pang was a deep one,

For it quickly brought to mind

What once made me believe

And had left me so far behind.

So far, I found myself

With no recollection of you;

I’d forgotten your eyes,

Your arms, your care – all of you.

I thought of you today,

So I guess I did not forget;

So here I sit wistful,

But thankfully, without regret.

Yesterday’s Dawn.

The dawn has broken on the body of the night.
Pigeons, herons and one eagle have taken flight,
They soar, flapping their wings towards places afar,
While the blue fills the sky and shuts off its last star.

Dark crows and small sparrows are the ones who speak now,
The waning moon has long since made his exiting bow,
They speak to one another, perhaps, greet the day,
And each upon each wishes to have his own say.

The vibrant sun has not made his entry quite yet;
And all is softly azure, on wing and dulcet;
Memory corresponds to dawns that were the same;
Today chances on remembering yesterday’s name.
