THIS MEMORIAL DAY

It seems
I heard the laughter

and noticed the Sun
rising
on a day that was supposed to be rain.

It seems
that I heard them

laughing

as I missed a few shots
on my nine.

It seems that nothing matters
except that they
… live

here
in the places of the heart,

and tears of the soul.

It seems so.

… and that is fine with me.
