Black fur coat...
(In remembranceย of myย Mother, on the 4th anniversary.ย Iย think of you often).
You have faded away like last nights perfume; like the still night that gives way, to a bustling sweet morning.
But, to hold back the last remaining tears for you; would cost my heart dear, and so, I must let you slip away.
I carry your darkness everywhere, like a black fur coat; that I wrap around my shoulders to keep out the chill.
In the deep pockets, I hide my hopes and my dreams, lying at the bottom, broken, in tatters, and in shards.
And now, your feet dance on the stars, with angel kisses, leaving snowy footprints in the silvery dust.
Within my soul, there you are, my silent painful breath; melting away like the candles I light each year.

Hi Caron,
This brought tears to my eyes. ย What a beautifully elegant composition in honor of your dearly departed Mother. ย She will live on forever in the chambers of your heart and the recesses of your soul. ย As time goes on, that "Black Fur Coat" will change color to white. ย For some day you will look back in happiness at all the joys you shared together.
Peace and Love,
