Poem -
a lily's haunted glow
In the absence IÂ imagine
that the casket opened slowly
With reverence With gentle hands
with candle fires, petalled things
with hymn and sacred psalms
and in the ghost white
of your features
in the lily's haunted glow
I would have stood in love
beside you child
witnessed, watched you go
and right there in that stillness
I would have bent my face in grace
placed a goodbye kiss upon you
On your cherished deadened face
but in this absence I imagine
The peace in which you sleep
And in this absence, in all absence
That last kiss
I sacred keep....
