a thousand times
the
sand remembers us

no more

one more journey in solitude

an innermost flood
the landscape forever changed
when
her water broke

tending her garden
the woman with dementia
remembers
who's who

through hospital doors
the smell of earth after rain
hands
me one more day
Nancie Zivetz-Gertler
she wonders aloud
what might burn through the darkness
and
asks for a star

winter parting
I listen to the silence
she
left behind

shower time
soap bubble after soap bubble
after
my son's laughter

my
ancestor in the distant past.

In my solitude
a
frog jumps in.

It's Monday
gazing

that thrill rekindled—
silently looking at leaves
whirling
in the wind
Mihaela Babusanu
a cart full of grapes—
father even since sunrise
cleaning
the barrels
Mihaela Babusanu
Saint Valentine's Day—
ripping the heart from my hand
a
strong gust of wind

Of what are people
dreaming
that moment they die
in the throes of sleep?
