wedding flutes

Threw two glass flutes away. 

Drank from them our wedding day.

Engraved on one:

Kevin 

November 5, 1993

And the other:

Marsha

November 5,  1993

 

Both mothers were alive then, my father too.

Dad died, then Mom, Inez.

You:

Kevin 

February 4, 2014

 

Mary lost Damon February 6,  2021. 

She got a tattoo on her forearm today, 

a rose and heart, her name, his,

the words Always & Forever.

 

I let it go - glass, silver stemmed,

a lily, my heart, the past.
