A wreath of tears
Your funeral
was so quiet, and small
almost too small,it is said
for a man your stature
You must
have preferred it that way
having buried so many yourself
and knowing as you did
how private grief must be
how loss remains, at the end
personal
We would have sent flowers but seeing how they had fallen callously into dispute
and not wanting to offend
we did not
instead
from the garden of memory
suddenly blooming as with first rains we plucked,with care
