More poetry! Whatever holds you holds you for love.
No matter how bitter, how angry, how mad, at bottom
there is love beyond desire, beyond what we can hold
in our terrible and tender hearts. Whatever holds you
is love and when it dies in a moment mourn the
ghosts it trails to fill the moon, hold what is always
held against the breaking mountain, against a water
for clouds and lovers falling apart, saying goodbye,
knowing that what loves never leaves but only steps
away to cool in the shadows of time. For my beloved
Poppa, Aubrey R. "Bill" Williams, February 20, 1930
to March 24, 2003. Namaste. Vaya con Dios.
