i sit in the low afternoon
sun
the warmth of it's rays negligable, but the colours
of it's farewell glorious.
in the lilac bush, still holding
green, the bluewrens chitter,
gossip, chirk and flirt away..
as they dart and flicker from twig to twig.
i think what a bluegreen end to a greyblack day....
and the sun shines,orange
and peach and the horizon
takes that lavender hue.
as the sky fades to deepest
blue.... my thoughts my friend, settle on you...
farewell my sunny friend
farewell.

as the sky fades to deepest
blue.... my thoughts my friend, settle on you...
farewell my sunny friend
farewell.
my friend with cancer has slipped into a coma....
soon she will be at rest.
