WHAT'S THIS?

Having been immersed in memoir writing for many months, I decided to write a small poem every day for a year to keep my poetic hand in. I've posted them to Instagram and facebook as written – where, to my amazement, people love them – but on this blog they are sometimes subject to later rewriting.

Oh bitter irony ...

 

Oh bitter irony! A dear friend died

two days ago. I just found out.

I was about to send him – today –

my newly published books in which 

poetry he wrote is featured. One tells 

of how how our lifelong friendship 

began. And now it’s ended. Except,

I suppose, love is never really over.
