A POEM FOR NALAH


A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam.

For a brief moment it's glory and beauty belong to our world.

But then it flies on again, and though we wish it could have stayed, we feel so lucky just to have seen it.

Opa (Grandpa)

Dear Nalah ...please watch over your Opa tonight. He is in the same ER where you passed fourteen months ago today. How can this be? I will be keeping vigil tonight until your time of death, 1:28 am, as I do every month on the 8/9th. Opa needs some help from the Angels tonight sweetheart. We need his heart to be strong.  Opa has a special place in his heart for you. We all do.
