It doesn't take much,  
a random thought,  
the first notes of a Van Morrison song,  
or a thousand others,  
each tied to images,  
to memories,  
the soundtrack of our story.

I can see your lips move,  
your hips move,  
and I begin to sway,  
as I feel you pull my heartstrings toward you.

Yes, I am smiling,  
and yes those are tears,  
made from grief, gratitude, joy.

What I have found over time,  
as my feet have worn smooth  
the jagged stones of the journey,  
is that you are never farther  
than a cherished memory.

I am not alone,  
you are with me every day.
