I used to visit you

when the season bloomed

in the hills over the bay

hear about memories of a distant time

see your twinkling eyes

cling to you for walks by the lapping waves


today, dismal cold

3,000 miles East

see you there, peaceful in bed

listen to whispers behind your mechanical sighs

reach out to touch hands in vain

if you hear me, I cannot know 

solemn as you go out with the tide
