Into Sunlight

I like to think she never felt the pain,
never had a tortured moments penance.
But that...
the sunlight coming down in chrysanthemum rain,
lifted her chest in morning melodies...
and consequence.

I like to think...
her last thoughts were of her loving cares,
and the promise of her unfettered future.
For she is free now...
sunlight sojourner with no use for wares,
her spirit is safe and her pathway is pure.

Perhaps he lost sight of her in that moment...
the lightning of her departure so bright;
her last wild dance.
When her time here was at last gently spent,
nobody saw her go in that dawning starlight,
her jump to "white shores and silver glass."

I will miss the person you so richly created,
miss the confidence with which you loved me.
And I only wish...
at that moment when we were separated...
that vision could have been granted me to see,
to have walked with you that morning...
to have hugged you and held your hand...
and said goodbye.
