Two poems for Julia

We live in this world on an Inhale…
We leave from this world on an Exhale…
A lifetime riding the wave of Breath…

Enticing atmosphere that we share
Entwining, overlapping, breathing Air around us
Invisible, un-tasted, abused, taken for granted…

But always around us…

Between us…

Within us…

*

I wear your medallion under my coat.

So free and weightless I forgot its presence

But now that it has been pulled away

And lost forever

I can feel the tug of Earth’s gravity’s pull

An empty void heavier then lead

Treasure what here

Before it is lost

Treasure what is lost

As if it where here

*
