The grains fall through corseted glass,
time squandered, regretted,
opportunities irretrievable,
a life whispered, then silent.
Listen – do you hear the music?
It plays on.
Strut, leap, beam wide-eyed,
ignite a soul ablaze to
inhale the aroma of the lush
severed blades of late summer,
grin at the smiling sunflowers,
sway to the music of love,
broad-hearted, full-throated,
spear the brass circle, then cast it into the sea.
“Oh, that. That was nothing.”
A life to see.
