Midas

For you, Leah. 

Yesterday I got out my new red-glass vase,
and filled it with fairy lights,
and took away the dead leaves from the mantlepiece,
and lit a new candle.

And I missed you (again), and how your touch makes everything more beautiful.
On the mantlepiece and in life.

  1. Oh Manda-- this is so beautiful.
    And especially poignant for me :)
    Love you, friend!
