Drift with me

Drift with me

Float on the breeze

From a window

Lighter than air

An essence of yesterday

Carried on a zephyr

Fly with me

Leave the moribund

Traipsing alone

Follow in the wake

Of another day

Unspoiled by its

Susceptibility to progress

Without pause

For thought

Familiar places

Echoed by association

Ghostlike repetition

Barely visible

In the twilight

Of candlewise comfort

Move along

Before the dust settles

On broken bones

Breathing is a miracle

Once heard

Though softly

Doth its music play

Its absence

Leaves a silence

Deeper than

A late-night lullaby

Could ever fill.
