WONDERMENT IN THE MIDST OF BEAUTY

.
 Looking out the window
 I see the sunshine 
 reflecting off the 
 long grass on the dunes

 Lake water was 
 like liquid silver
 Beauty, I thought as 
 I looked back to the dune

 My heart jumped and  
 reality returned
 Somewhere, high in 
 the dune were
 The ashes of 
 my bride and youngest son

 What is this thing called life
 A merry-go-round of emotions
 The angels were lonely and stopped by
 They left me lonely and in wonder
