Memory Poem #1


a day of celebration
a day to acknowledge
the beauty of life
gifted to the Earth
in the form of you
 
the heart knows
but the brain fails
speaking of waste materials
and future unknowns
rather than the present
joy of your existence

fortunately your heart
big and understanding
saw past the failure
to the greater truth
with a humored smile

we should not need
a day to celebrate
for every day
is an honor
and a gift
