Māter

This gulf of years

but a moment

to me still,

always leaving you

just before,

not knowing

it would be

for the last time

in this life.

If but for a moment

to breach the veil of time,

lift away the weight

of these long years

and to gaze upon you again,

hearing your voice,

touching your hand...

...to be at peace,

one more time...
