Ripple Effects

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

Lost One

Today

I think

I’ll cry

just

to see

physical evidence

of all I’ve been through

Everyone I’ve lost

grave dust

is

hardest

to dispose of

and I’m good

at

vacuuming

sucking in disappointment

pain

denial

and

the fact that…

you’re gone.

Surely goodness and love will follow me…

We Cherish too, the Poppy red

That grows on fields where valor led

It seems to signal to the skies

That blood of heroes never dies.
