I am the Sun
giving Sun
I am the Rain
giving Rain
I am the Wind
in the rosebush
star in the night sky
Awake
Death
death
I know you are with me
a constant companion
you have taken my mother, father
and now my best friend
I want to be bigger than my grief
transcend the loss
make it into philosophical sandwiches
to serve with tea
I can only shout, shake my fists
my friend is dead
her body turned to ash
I weep
and bow my head
Surprise
I am breathing
beauty
light and dark
in and out
goes my breath
Connection
trees
side by side
limbs and roots
entwined in silent harmony
