Untitled, May 2021

It’s a sinking feeling in your heart

It doesn’t hurt

And yet it’s there

This absence now

Where once there was

Time in person

to show you care

Time to be together

reading books

collecting rocks

Meaningful connections

It didn’t matter

What it was

Everett and Grandma Zebra

Such and deep

and special bond

A love that seems

to transcend time

Generations before

And carrying on

As so to trust

that in those moments

And in the very first imprints

The map back to one another

Is still as strong

And does exist
