In remembrance

Rabbit Rock.

(for Christine, Annmarie, Karen and Evelyn. And Scotty and Pat)

This morning

under gray somber skies

(opposite

those misleading blue ones of

long

ago)

we made our way down

steep hillside –

the autumn brush still sprouting

hope in the form of

purple balloon flower and

fall

crocuses.

At the water,

we stood for a while,

taking in its

glassine surface

rippled only by

the periodic

disturbance

of fish.

There, on the dock,

I sent out wishes for

Pat and for

Scotty,

for all the unknown

loved ones who

never came

home

that

day,
