The Poem I Will Never Hear
In Memory Of Concepcion Almiranez
Italics, excerpts from Ruth Danon
     Know
Light shines
     
As you travel into adulthood.

I repeat myself
      The halcyon days are not gone.

I confuse everything
      You murmur in secret.
      But I will always here you.

In slow motion
      I see your shadow
      Hiding, near to weeping.
         
            Please let go.

I do not see you
      As the reflection you perceive.

Supper
      Awaits-go.

Little silver pen
      Reflecting the moonlight trail.

Knowing too much
      Will not bring you the comfort you yearn

With out demand
      I am the voice behind the echoes of your footsteps-
      On water, in the sand, in mid-air.

Please let go.

A thin line
      To walk is only as narrow as your fears.

I confuse everything
      You murmur in secret
      But I will always hear you
      I will
      Always
      Here
      Hear you.

I am the insecure river
      But you are from the ocean

I did not see,I do not know
      I am sorry

              Please let go.

Clamors or suffer
      Not the only road
      
              Please let go.

You confuse everything.
