Julies fourty sixth Birthday

JULIES FOURTY SIXTH BIRTHDAY

Arriving at Mother's house I release my vision.

My words echo off Jewel's particles in the Blue House.

Your whispers are a "Blizzard of thought," at 617 Oscar Street.

John,Sue and I arrive at your grave amazed.

A snowplow heaved two large layers of snow on your Stone.

Surrounded by dirty green grass melted from yesterday's warm breeze.

Grabbing the ice scraper from the Ford Van.

Carving a Crystal cake on your coffin.

Shivering, placing six rows of eight candles minus two.

Huddling around you forming a ring from the storm.

Lighting the candles, Singing "happy Birthday."

You dance painlessly , arms flailing "Happy".

Dame's "Dude" is present, and inches of memories fall in haste.

Sticking our tounges out,tasting every morsel.

The years burn bright, warming our chilled hearts.

Watching flames descend toward your bones.


.
Happy Birthday Julie from your favorite Brother.
