Carla in strength Stood at his side Words of love Held his hand Awaiting a rescue A withdrawl advised Sean hung in The doctors did all Their fingers a forlorn grip Alone asleep Carla sensed his pulling aura He teetered with a toehold outside her windowsill Carla ventured back Sean no eyes for this world A last breath, a lingering feeling of remorse He stayed to say goodbye Life on earth now spent Like a double helix now parted Carla’s clutches the book of memories Bound by precious silk reddened threads Awaiting a day to again exchange vows A welcoming kiss to light a path united   A love that will survive

A poem for the late Sean
Carla in strength Stood at his side Words of love Held his hand Awaiting a rescue A withdrawl advised Sean hung in The doctors did all Their fingers a forlorn grip Alone asleep Carla sensed his pulling aura He teetered with a toehold outside her windowsill Carla ventured back Sean no eyes for this world A last breath, a lingering feeling of remorse He stayed to say goodbye Life on earth now spent Like a double helix now parted Carla’s clutches the book of memories Bound by precious silk reddened threads Awaiting a day to again exchange vows A welcoming kiss to light a path united   A love that will survive
The loss of a friend following a brutal but brief fight with covid. The names have been changed but the sentiment of their dedication to each other is a lasting poetic memorial.
