Remembering You

Gleaming, glistening tears lay frozen,
on shy and curling lashes,
I've reached a vivid tombstone
of friendship, love and care.
Just a cornice of the ground,
to mark the resting place,
of all I hold so dear.
the face, the form, the features,
the voice, the loving looks.
All's so real; yet lost!
I held a sample of the soil,
that slowly slipped away
....embraced it with my eyes;
Then the ice was broken,
the sea of frozen tears,
melt to drown my world,
and I, in that ocean,
reached for a surfing wave,
to kiss the other shore
..where your eyes closed in slumber!
