Au Revoir.

I found your name
growing among the flowers
in a quiet field.
I found it
etched into the trees.
I lay and watched the sky
lay down the moon,
raise the sun,
only to let the sun
sink away.

My hands are not good
at holding water.
Your name
slipped through them
to grow among the trees.

A warm kiss
goodbye.
Diamonds around my neck.
Footsteps as soft
as a whisper.
I turned and smiled.

Be well. Be brave.

Au revoir.
