Two Hands (poem in progress)
For LuAnne, who never understood our fate...
I witnessed you a thousand feet higher
Blue waters purged blue sky
And your eyes
And mine
Alive
Two hands
United elements
We hiked
You lifted me higher
on Sugarloaf mountain
It was not the ore docks,
great steel ships, coasting seagulls
or fall colors that you described
that memory fails to recall,
but your song
on a chill, sunny day
where we paused amid
restless leaves decaying
You cleansed me,
freed me from ignorance,
solitude, gave me hope
that I could love better
Love
someone like you.
