Memorial

May his memory be a blessing. In my heart, a yahrzeit candle burns, two years later.

You go to bury the dead. You put something dead into a still living soil.

And what if you planted something real and still waiting for its blooming-

What if you look for a way to keep the memorial burning longer than a 24 hour candle

to put down roots that will grow and stretch out like leaves and blossoms.

to be surrounded by daisies and Monkey Grass, life thriving among the living.
