PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Even when loved ones have past
we still caress their wondrous spirits
with our rampant words stumbling out
of locked lips until truth slides through
cracked windows for letting sunshine
filter through our muddied eyelashes
one glimmer at a time until we see
past obstacles into blistering days
full of sloshing barefoot through
puddles after confiding in people
we trust beyond the grave
as pray for one more miraculous  
resurrection before sending back
borrowed friends and sailboat
remedies glide steadily into us
once we recollect old advice
or let their voices sing us lullabies
scribbled inside our souls
like God's arms rocking us to sleep
without ever achieving our request
of having back our beloved for
an extra day.
