Beloved
husband, father, son, brother and friend.
"Once you shone among the living as the
Morning Star;
Among the dead you shine now, as the
Evening Star."
---Plato
"We thought the years would last forever,
They are all gone now, the days
We thought would not come for us are here." ---Kenneth Rexroth
Never more will the wind
Cherish you again,
Never more will the rain.
Never more
Shall we find you bright
In the snow and wind.
The snow is melted,
The snow is gone,
And you are flown:
Like a bird out of our hand,
Like a light out of our heart,
You are gone.
---Hilda
Doolittle
The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the
laughter, the love,-
They are gone. They have gone to feed the roses.
Elegant and curled
Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I
do not approve.
More precious was the light in your eyes than all the
roses in the world.
---Edna
St. Vincent Millay
When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
---Shakespeare
I ache for him every day.
