The Connection
And all those people
Have not gone there is a
Lateral connection of
Webbing I cannot touch
But know exists outwith
My fingertips.
It is a woven stranding
Soul to soul - horizontal,
Vertical, that lets me
Know they are not lost
And I am not left here
Alone.
It is nuance in the room
It is upsurge of recognition
Of a favourite tune it is
Memory of days long
Gone of them
Dancing.
Oh stay with me do -
Here now in this room
You two your synonym of
Being I miss so much
And long to stay
Within.
Never sever from me
The past that place
Where I laughed and was
Loved as hope and
Daughter I am
Remembering.
