Sense of Memory

Rose petal fallen to ground
Dead as you are
Not even the flowers given
In your memory last

Leaf from stem to coffee cup
Sip to lips
Taste of residue hits palate
Death tastes fuzzy

Hum hum buzzing refrigerator
Hymnals sung
Echos summoned from memory
Voice distracting mind from studies

Garbage rot in doorway
Stale fish smell
Summers in your garden
Dumpster dives and burning bushes

Senses shape thought of you
Missing you completely
