Footprints in the Windsm # 1996–Her hand print fades
Footprints in the Windsm # 1996
Her hand print fades
from off the glass
closest she could get
as he lies dying
and I, having
sent her away
— was it gently?—
seeing this embrace
too quickly evaporate
grab a marker
to trace its outline
Please pass it on.
