Remembrance Dawns

Early morning rain; 
creates soft, gentle light, and
I am reminded how still 
you are,
offering up 
your warm lap. 
Ever here, 

you sing "Come,
come, rest your constant
worries and need for doing.
Snuggle your cheek 
against my chest. I will 
tell you stories
of the many ways
I've loved you 
since before time."
