A crisp autumn night
A flickering ethereal light
A light breeze whistles past

A bountiful sky of stars
A country road without bars
A lone firefly does travel

A galore of eves
A cradle of leaves
A meadow shall snow cover

A fireplace smolders
A table of folders
A cup of coffee runs cold

A plaque of ovation
A bold inscription
A life to be recalled kindly

A child asleep
A little too deep
A kiss, a tear, a smile

Dedicated to one being that shall remain hidden in plain sight…
