you silence me
which is. more
than anyone
has ever done before

You
I look in the mirror
and I see you.

After all these years
I honestly couldn’t bear
to celebrate
my wedding anniversary
with anybody else
but you!
Frances Raeburn Sep 2023
My elation
and pure joy
of giving birth to you
is an exact match
of having a grown up
real time
beautiful
now time
conversation with you

You dropped our love today
I think when you left early
for work
I saw it as I left with the kids
tossed to the side
I think the postman caught it
in his heel

silver bits of you
smelted for a bit
and became
slowly solid
indestructible undefinably
bronze.

like an untuned symphony
and somehow
you turn my words
into a tune
