I Too...

Your name has been etched

on to that cold, gray stone

behind the words

in memory of

Does the stone paint a picture

of the sparkle your eyes once held

as you told me the stories

of your own childhood years?

Can it recall the warmth

remembered in your voice

as you hugged me tightly to yourself

whispering, “I love you”?

So on my piece of paper

in words composed in ink

I too, write

so your memories are not forgotten
