Four Years

 

I want

to honor 

your life,

but I don't

know how

to say more

without

tears...

of joy?

To my child

To my child,

On this date twenty years from now you will watch your Beloved travel from Manhattan to Gettysburg, starry eyed and filled with faith, hope, and joy. Her family's VHS tapes will finally be digitized. Here is what I want you to learn on that day. 

Learn the virtues from her. God knows you didn't learn them from us.
