  5. (written in July 2023) Once Against all hours, days, devisings, radiant axe and warming fire: Pulse and grasp cease you. You stillness gone from streams of light, space and time, gone to snow once touched your flushed face, to crester-stone once glanced the pond, to pond, its laps of shore, their sum, to ice ceiling once you stood upon, to sky once above all your loves. (written in August 2023) Above Rains Under spotlights, nights fantastic, fixed Neptune learns self, matching Mars, two men loving bold, spiral life aloft above rains. Years, books, pen, booming waves. Beyond city of death, years peace in timbers, pen blazing, old work new earth, deliverance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Deliverance from the city of death and pain because you survived the death of the one worth more than the world to you,* that deliverance too comes to an end. Love. Love boldly. Even with all this pain.) [In the photos with music,* get the music going, then return to the FB photo while the music plays.]
  6. It is now 44 days since Walter died. I am marking a milestone tonight by returning to sleeping in our own bed, instead of sleeping in the guest room.

  8. HD, Walter, my wonderful, my husband, my everything died 15 April 2025*. I expect it will be a long time if ever I return to this issue. —S
  9. Why Is Not Why the world blooms when he has gone out this spring of glories? Why the sky and I when he is no more hand, live mind moving? Why I move beyond his days, pulse, eyes, arms, his breathing love?
  10. Welcome to the company, Andrew!
  11. @lumina.anonima – "anonymous" means that the author is unknown. To be extra sure of your meaning, are you saying that the composition at the link you provided was not written by you? You indicated here that you wrote Essays 10 and 11. Please clarify the authorship. To be clear, I should say that the poem "Line to Line" was written by me (Jan. 2023). @Doug Morris – I have been delighted to see you read Scientific American. I have been a subscriber since 1975. The poems I have seen in there on scientific topics have no poetic merit. I do not know if a poem on as scientific topic is possible. I did gradually learn to write some of my poems on philosophical topic. But when it comes to possible failure to have poetic merit, I sacrifice the definiteness of the philosophic point to make a good poem.
  12. Ballade Walter and Stephen
  13. My poetry book was dedicated "To Walter, my wonderful" my husband my everything. Walter died yesterday.
